Beach Riot – Wrong Impression (Alcopop! Records)
Release Date: Out Now
It kinda feels churlish to call
your band Beach Riot nowadays with all the Covidiots taking to the beaches in
their masses but regular readers will know that this Brighton quartet were here
first so back the fuck off. The band’s new single ‘Wrong Impression’ starts
with a gloriously fuzzy riff that is somewhere between Presidents of the USA
and really early Cooper Temple Clause before the rest of the band coming
crashing in….and how. As we have all come to expect from these guys, this is
three minutes of pop-punk perfection with grunge sprinkled on top and all the
rawness and excitement expect from a band still free of the shackles of the
world. If you like the early work of Weezer, the Dandy Warhols and Supergrass then
you’ll be well into this but just imagine all of those with a slightly harder edge
and half a bottle of rum already down. Each.
