6 out of 10

This little track has come along at the right time, it would seem. Summer's arrived, so Beach Boys harmonies are required. And Phil Spector's in prison, so he'll need a bit of cheering up and evidence of why he matters musically at the moment, I would suspect. Enter No And The Maybes, who have seemingly managed to combine Pet Sounds with the Cardigans. Your nose may already be turning toward your forehead but wait - any band who say they are 'on a mission to save and reclaim the catchy melody from wedding singers and the Eurovision Song Contest' are surely worth three minutes of any right-thinking person's life. A couple of listens and you may wish to give them a few more.
