“Fuck me, it’s about time someone took offence to what I said”. Who couldn’t love a record that starts like this, especially when the song is called ‘Boomtown Twats’? It’s lo-fi scuzz-rock, made by Tim (English) and Amy (Australian), the duo who have converted their former garage band existence into this frantic pop band with the help of an antique Alessi SR16 drum machine and the title of an environmental Christian car campaign. ‘Boomtown Twats’ is 96 seconds of joyous pop profanity, slagging off all the dicks in the world in a totally intoxicating way; ‘I Think We Rushed Into This’ is a darker but no less poppy view of marriage; and the only bum note is the jokey version of ‘The One That I Want’ from Grease that ends the EP. It’s smutty, funny, and their self-penned songs are full of turbo-pop fizz; what’s not to love, unless you’re a Christian or a twat?
