At first I was pleasantly shocked by the vulgar twee of Sweden’s Strip Squad, but now I feel like it’s just an act that is getting tired and old. The new songs, that were just released in advance of a new lp, are not stylistically different from anything they’ve done in the past and the novely of the lyrics is no longer shocking.
On the song “You Cream My Pants” the guitars are pleasant, the girl’s vocals are a bit sexy and the of Fergal Sharkey talk-singing about midway through may be novel, but the whole experience leaves me nonplussed.
