well, this is a novelty. <\/p>\n

on my door mat a few days ago was a one track cd single.<\/p>\n

there was a time when this was a regular occurrence to such a level that ireallylovemusic<\/u> hq was literally bursting at the seam with the bloody things.<\/p>\n

so, i stopped writing about one off singles as i just couldn’t keep up, and to be honest most of them were crap.<\/p>\n

but the arrival of light it up<\/font> by blood red shoes<\/strong> hit the spot at just the right time as guitar music has suddenly made a welcome return to the playlist <\/p>\n

of course it helps that the song is a short sharp addictive slice of fuzzed up punk pop that by the very admission of the band themselves is a ‘pixies formula song’. the old school “quiet – quiet – loud” trick is executed to be perfection, and the chantalong chorus of ‘light it up’ will be in your head for hours after the 3rd listen.<\/p>\n

a cracking slice of fuzzed up rock-n-roll.<\/p>\n

one would like to assume that evening radio play is guaranteed and live venues across the world are filled to capacity enjoying the duos sparky grooves.<\/p>\n

now someone please tell me if the album is worthy of my pocket money or if this is a one-off highlight !<\/p>\n
