Labels: Pop Kid
Review by: Simon Graver
So it goes that this CD has been sitting around for months. From summer 2002 to be precise. I lost my mobile months ago, and only recently got round to cancelling the contract. I needed $10 to order the new Copperpot “Tired of Waiting’ CDEP, but that took me months to get the money and send for the CD. My sister wants some money from me. I can’t even remember what it is for, but she assures me I owe her. If I remember, I better write her a cheque after I finish this”¦yeah right sure. I’ll get round to everything one day. So here’s one to cross off the list”¦
“Yeah Right Sure’ starts off well enough with “5.65 keep breathing’, a track which would have sat nicely on 1997’s classic “Domestic Violence’ 7″ (which is included as a bonus on this CD). The trouble is, by the time I had listened to the remainder of this album it is apparent that HGS haven’t delivered the record I was hoping them to. “5.65 keep breathing’ aside, there are no real standout tracks just some pretty average pop-punk. The final 4 bonus tracks are taken from the “Domestic Violence’ 7″ and one listen to “Input=Output’, “Inhaler’ or “Ignore the Screaming’ and I wish HGS had made an album full of these songs. Shame.
