| If there was some kind of magical machine that opened up your brain, analysed your thoughts and used its computery faculties to create your ideal, tailor-made record - and if such a terrifying gizmo doesn’t exist already, I’d be prepared to bet that Apple will be marketing something strikingly similar, in impeccably designed packaging, come next Christmas - it seems likely that, in my case, the end result would be an EP released on the Fortuna Pop! label, featuring a song called something like ‘She’ll Break Your Heart Again’. |

Which just goes to prove that all technology is inherently wrong and deserves to be bashed to pieces with cricket bats, really, because I didn’t much care for this offering by the Loves. The Loves, you see, are one of those 1960s-enthralled indie-pop outfits, and as it goes, ‘Xs and Os…’ is rather catchy. Unfortunately, it all comes across as a bit dry and studied: the immediate influences appear not to be the guitar bands of the ‘60s, as they would have us believe, but rather the bands on the Creation label who were aping that sound 15 or 20 years ago.
The track ‘Nao Va Se Perder Por Ali’ is, in fact, quite fun, but that turns out to be a cover version. Bah. |
