What is there not to like here for the fans of synth-driven girl/boy pop cheese? 'Feel The Machine' is almost dark by The Chalets' standards and not as Bis-like as usual. Don't expect thought-provoking lyrics - "It's no-o-o-owhere/ It's e-e-everywhere/ ... Everybody wants to feel the machine/ Everybody yeah you know what I mean" - but this is pop music made for pop's sake, and The Chalets are going to be around a lot longer than The Bloody Crappy Noise Next Fucking Door and all other easy targets DiS is too tired to mention.
B-side/bonus track/whatever sounds like a bunch of stoners about to launch into the Asda theme. In a word: weird.
Lovely artwork throughout too but stare at it long enough and you’ll go blind.

Nice group to look at though.

Aaaaaanyway, I love The Chalets, but would say, IMHO(don'tkillame) that this is the weakest single to date.

At this same gig Steve Lamacq literally pushed me out the way on his way to the bar. I will strive to avenge this until the day I die
