The ole canny shopper instincts kicked-in the other day as I was buying
Sauna Youth's latest 7" from
Static Shock. I figured that if I was buying one 7", I might as well buy 2 to save a few bob on postage (that kinda logic'll see me to the poorhouse!) so I went digging around in their mailorder catalogue, a trusty browser to hand for the purpose of music sampling.
"Young Pretender" by Toronto's
Dangerloves was the record that set my pulse racing the fastest and which was added to my cart with relish. As power pop singles go, it's up there with the best I've heard in recent years (it was released in May, 2008). It starts off at quite a lick in full
Peechees mode but when
Zoe Dodd bursts into
"Young pretender you don't know who you are!" things go up a gear or two. Sparky!
