Showing Just How Healthy The Music Scene Really Is
Presenting their third in a series of 5 split 7" inch singles, Brainlove Records offer up two more new and emerging acts to the music public, both full of energy, enthusiasm and a healthy helping of pumping beats and alluring hooks.
Three piece, Applicants open proceedings with the wittingly titled 'Crappuccino'. Jam packed with a crunchy bass line and pummelling beats 'Crappuccino' oozes arrogance and attitude that manages to both insult and appeal at the same time as its pop structure voyages on the border of being a punk bombardment of jerky one liners that pound their way into your mind. Likewise, 'Filthy' delivers a disjointed slice of erratic pop wrapped neatly around a seething guitar and wit fused lyrics, suggesting that this is a trio to certainly check out on the live circuit.
With a hook that excites and attracts from the very first beat, The Open Mouths' 'Danny, Danny' is an irresistible offering of indie rock that comes equipped with enticing hand claps and a power pop guitar riff that is impossible to resist. Described as a 'wry homo–erotic tale of a love/hate relationship', 'Danny, Danny' is undeniably the stand out hit of Brainlove Record's latest offering. Humour clad lyrics, an infectious melody and a pop mentality that no one can avoid singing along to, 'Danny, Danny' has it all; take my advice, resistance is futile.
