While stormy weather pounds on the British Isles, we thought it was as good a time as any to finally get round to putting out our session with the charming Allo Darlin’. When confronted with chirpy pop outfits like this one we usually try and point out how they don’t conform to a stereotype of relentlessly sunny folk singing charmingly amusing songs about daft little topics – but to be honest, there’s just no way round it. They’re exactly like that, so we suggest you just suck up the cynicism and enjoy.
Opening the session, we have recent single ‘Henry Rollins Don’t Dance’, a tale of musical differences, Henry Rollins and, er, dancing to Abba. Twee? Not at all. And if that wasn’t sweet enough for your tooth, there’s also the chirrupping Kiss Your Lips, which is about exactly that. Only they tasted a bit funny. Because of the candy floss. In France. Obviously.
Anyway, Allo Darlin are super-nice, super-pop and super-cheery – put your huffy, pale hipster winter sneers away and get some sunshine in an otherwise dreary day.
