Kero Kero Bonito - Picture This

Kero Kero Bonito have the strange, playful sincerity that centres all great pop music.

Remember the days when phones - gasp! - didn’t have built in cameras? There were certainly fewer meticulously posed selfies and pictures of people’s carefully arranged lunches around, and now that they’re everywhere, lots of people can be quick to complain. Not Sarah Bonito. “When you’re old and wise, you’ll find, all the shots you’ve got bring back the times,” she points out, quite rightly, along with providing informative selfie-taking instructions elsewhere.

‘Picture This’ hurtles into life with a panpipe solo that could easily be taken from Zelda, and once the pogoing main hook ricochets into life, there’s truly no stopping them. Kero Kero Bonito are quickly building up a solid back-catalogue of intensely infectious and multi-hued pop, and anybody who doesn’t dance along should probably go and get their funny bone checked out. Whether they take on party planning, video games, the merits of cats versus dogs, or letting your inner flamingo run wild and free, Kero Kero Bonito have the strange, playful sincerity that centres all great pop music.
