With adoration from the UK press bound to strike any day now, these three youngsters from Coventry, England strangely signed to the dance-heavy Catskills label. Their first release is this pop punk gem that feels like a real kick in the teeth to the manufactured teenage wannabes that tried a similar thing like Busted and McFly. Knowing to go beyond Blink-182 and ape the originals like Buzzcocks, the Heartbreakers and even a bit of Pixies with that familiar bass line, their bubblegum scuzz is adorable and undeniably yummy, like a wad of fresh Hubba Bubba.
