Steel yourself for the sound of young Tunbridge Wells. With frenetic riffs and inflamed vocals, Isaac Holman and Laurie Vincent aim to yank Britain out of complacency by the waistband. A smart turn of phrase and sharp sense of humour ensure their punky bluster never feels like hectoring, and on its best moments–“Sockets” and “Cheer Up London”–this debut is a Molotov cocktail of energy, melody and playfulness.
