| The Retrospectives - Bittersweet |
I do worry sometimes that bands I
review on here will get one good single or EP out and then disappear as the
lure of an Assistant Manager job at Asda becomes too strong. So it's nice when
bands come round again with another release and another string of dates, just
like the Retrospectives. The Sheffield indie-pop trio are back with their
latest single 'Bittersweet' which is somewhere between the hugely marketable
and accessible songs that McFly bash out and some kind of pop version of Lynyrd
Skynyrd. Front-man Tom Galton does a good line in indie vocals but it's the
infectious guitar hooks backed up by the bouncing bass line that really sells
this track as a lot of fun and guaranteed to make a crowd pogo like it was the
height of Britpop within about 20 seconds.
