Little Boots - Meddle
3-5 StarsThe Culture Show must be literally beating her door down.
has been getting quite a bit of attention of late, from both sides of the Atlantic. It’s no surprise when you discover that ‘Meddle’ finds her working alongside Joe and Greg from Hot Chip. The Culture Show must be literally beating her door down.
This is, we must state, a million miles from Miss Hesketh’s days in Leeds based trio Dead Disco (for it is she! etc etc). A proper pop cracker with hints of Gwen Stefani, it’s the kind of thing we should be finding in the charts but don’t. That, and there’s some kind of nineteenth century Friar Tuck chorus complete with drums - always a winner.
Not one for fans of drudgy pub rock and real music, perhaps, but all kinds of fun.
