  • Label: Howl
In a past life, Torgas Valley Reds were known as Backwater and released material through both Ché and Fantastic Plastic. In their new guise they’ve chosen the Howl label for their debut release, and judging by its quality (somewhat expected, their history considered) it won’t be their last. Fuzzy basslines weave around “bah-bah-bahs” straight out of the early Ash songbook. If Busted mature into anything like this in a few years we'll forgive them for everything. Handclaps slap you happy throughout, and the feeling's addictive - if all singles were like this the pop charts would be a fantastic place to spend a Sunday afternoon.
  • Torgas Valley Reds 7 / 10
