Saturday, 12 April 2008Isoscoles on Art Goes Pop ISOSCELES KITCH BITCH / WATERTIGHT Art goes pop Country of Origin: United Kingdom (UK) Quantity Pressed: 500 Release Date: 21st Apr 2008 Isosceles is the latest four piece from Scotland. You can't talk about Scotland and pop music without mentioning the iconic post punk band, Orange Juice. Isosceles warrants the comparison, especially in this single Kitch Bitch. It has the same playfulness and humor, even more musically, full of jangly electric guitar, quick hook changes. I could even see them using one of those hollow body Gretch's, strumming out the catchy hooks, shuffling back and forth honestly enjoying themselves. Isosceles has updated this naive sound maybe with a little more attitude, bordering on Art Brut, that kind of direct half sung delivery, with equally clever lyric's like 'She's looking from the outside, but she always knows what's in', to the point where it's so full of pop culture references you wonder how they can get away with it. But they pull it off, even addign some classic hammond organ, and it's a logical extension of the legendary band and it's optimistic direction. Labels: art brut, art goes pop, isoceles, orange juice
