Strike
STRIKE WHILST THE IRON IS HOT
Orange and Lemons



"Whilst" aside, this is freshly squeezed Hotdogs-meets-Psychedelic Furs acoustic music to wake up to. Jangly in some parts, buzzing and Beatles-esque in others, surprisingly good most of the time. Surprising, really. Orange and Lemons' debut was too derivative and predictable. Now, it's catchyness with a twist, the catch being better refrains than choruses. "Umuwi ka na baby," stays with you, circumnavigates you. ***1/2

Ganda, Thor.

Sarap magbasa ng record reviews that aren't writing to a house style or kneedeep in pa-kool. Wink, wink.

And . . . tamaan man ako ng kidlat, but I agree with your Mariah review. :-)
