Rebecca & Fiona – Shotgun

“It has everything.”

Tim: The new one of this reliable duo is, I’m pleased to inform you, more or less exactly what I was hoping for when I first pressed play on the new Icona Pop track.

Tom: I wasn’t sold on it until the pre-chorus: then I think my brain figured out what it was trying to do, and it clicked into place.

Tim: It has everything: loud but still melodic vocals, with the occasional bout of mild sincerity, planted gracefully on top of a hefty electro synth backing. I really like this a lot. I don’t, annoyingly, have much more to say about it – there are no spectacular moments, but also no obvious disappointing parts.

Tom: As with so many tracks we see, Tim, it’s… it’s okay. It’s not a bright moment of genius, but it’ll do.

Tim: All I have to say is: Icona Pop, move over. We’ve got another duo to take your place.
