"Red Hot Chili Peppers produce Flaming Lips"
I'm live and features editor of New Noise. I look both ways when I cross the road. I stand at the back at gigs. My dancing is underwhelming.The National are under-rated and still alive. Bob Marley was over-rated and died. Rough justice.08.05.07 - The Loungs

Scousers doing melodic pop. So now you're expecting them to boil down to a tasteless harmony soup by track two aren't you? You're wrong, they're lovely. It's pronounced 'lungs' by the way.

More Scots peddling all that was acceptable in the 80s after filtering it through a gauze of angular riffage. Must be something in that Buckfast after all.

Not quite silly. Like mad Lemonheads played by Hogwarts obsessed brothers. In fact, that's exactly what it is. Not quite silly. Not quite.
