‘Change The Record’

(This Is Fake DIY)

 

And so Brighton's 4 or 5 Magicians resurface with Change The Record, a self-aware slacker anthem about mind-deadening daytime radio playlists that lurches drunkenly from big American Rob Schnapf-like gas-guzzling guitar layers into an all-band chant of ‘I’ve resorted to listening to Radio 4’ that is very nearly stirring enough to make you put some pants on and run down to Capital FM with a big gun.

Marvellously cynical alt.rock grubbiness. More please.
