Tim: We haven’t covered these guys in a while – not, in fact, since they added the Conspiracy to their name. Still, they’ve not gone away at all, and here’s their latest.
Tim: I rather like that, albeit with a caveat or two. The main thing is that I wasn’t really sold on it much until the last minute or so of that video – it was enough to keep me listening, but not much more.
Tom: Oddly, I like the sound of the verses — and that pre-chorus — much more than the actual chorus. That’s rare. The chorus is a bit too “schoolyard chant” for me.
Tim: But then, when the video changed to have several panes and everybody started jumping around with each other, and the music kicked up a notch, it suddenly became a whole lot more fun because it was clear what the song was about.
Tom: Did it?
Tim: Yes, it was there in the lyrics, which on hearing a second time becomes obvious, right from the start with “we go wild”, but that never really came across in the music. Basically, put a great big donk on it and it’ll be great. As it is – hmm.
