imagine if you will, the pigeon detectives covering lou reeds trasnformer, with the beach boys on backing duties and peter shelly on guitar. this is the closest comparison i can think of to describe the 1990s debut album "cookies", and its good. very good.
hark back to when indie was fun, you didnt have to sound like joy division or whinge about other, more popular bands, you just had to make music that was fun, and this record is just that. 3 chord pop punk, soaring vocal melodies, songs about schoolgirls nicking stuff from the magazine bit in wh smith, bunking off art college and taking crazy rave drugs in forests. trust me on this, the 1990's are brilliant and this album demonstrates exactly why. it will make you SMILE, and thats whats important.
