Wild Smiles - Girlfriend (Sunday Best Recordings)

| Wild Smiles - Girlfriend |
I'm starting to properly love
these guys. There seems to have been a return to good, old fashioned releases
of singles backed up by fervent touring and just generally working hard and
Wild Smiles are part of that movement. 'Girlfriend' is the latest volley of
rock'n'roll excess to hit the airwaves/internet and it's the last chance you
have to get on board before the album drops in late October. In typical Wild
Smiles style, the single kicks off with buzz saw guitars covered in thick syrup
before the Ramones-meets-Beach Boys vocal harmonies kick in all pushed along by
those restless drums. This may only be 150 seconds of punk inspired indie-pop
but these three guys manage to squeeze an awful lot of sugar, sunshine and
melody in to those brief seconds. It's like the difference between an all night
session with your mental ex or a quickie with your absolute, all time focus of
all your lustful thoughts and feelings. Simple choice really.
