Some things in life just make our day.
A puppy dog’s smile, solid chocolate Kit Kats, not having to get a round in at the pub, bacon sandwiches for lunch, not having to do any work, realising it’s quitting time after thinking it was only two o’clock, Firefox not crashing and finally, getting sent free stuff. Go on PR companies, you know you love us.
Whenever bucketloads of music comes hurtling towards us, the majority of it can be summed up in a few words. ‘Radiohead wannabes’ and ‘bum toss’ are terms most frequently used. But when bands like The Lovely Sparrows come along, we can’t just simply say ‘they make lovely sounding songs’. Partly because the word lovely is a bit vague, and even we’re not that lazy to recycle the band’s own name in to a review.
