| Shiners - (I Feel So) Blunt |
Release Date: Out Now
London based in Indie-poppers
Shiners are back and I think, with this single, they might just have cracked
it. You see, ‘(I Feel So) Blunt’ does that classically British thing of moaning
about the futility of modern life and relationships but set to a perky guitar
riff and singalong chorus. Lyrics like “five days I’m working with two to
recover, no wonder we have no time for each other” and “you stayed in with your
mates, I went out with mine, are we kidding ourselves we’re having a good time”
will chime with just about everyone in any kind of serious relationship in
their 20s. Spirit wise, this is line with Hard-Fi’s ‘Cash Machine’ and the
classic ‘Up The Junction’ by Squeeze and it’s a damn catchy tune along the
lines of Pulp’s ‘Common People’. So, you see, when I say they might just have
cracked it, it’s because what Shiners have here is ruddy good British indie-pop
song that stands shoulder to shoulder with some classics of the genre.
