Review - Fight Like Apes - Jake Summers

Fight Like Apes - Jake Summers

View The Review

7 out of 10

Weirdly, when my computer tries to go on the internet to find the track names for this CD it comes up with the names of an earlier EP by the same band, which I think I have somewhere. I wonder if this is some kind of cunning plan to confuse and baffle the public?

Fight Like Apes sounds a bit like a different band on every track, but there are definitely some Pixies moments in there, a bit of Pavement and the Flaming Lips too, and even a bit of more contemporary stuff like the Ting Tings. Crazy off kilter pop hooks with some frankly genius lyrics. Give them a try if you don't mind a bit of quirk!
