Why does everyone whose band can do a halfway-passable impression of Radiohead suddenly think they’re qualified musicians? I don’t propose to answer that, but I will tell you that Ampop’s latest album, while hackneyed and commonplace in the extreme, is a pleasant listening experience, within which you can find - aside from the obligatory modern rock - attempts at folk, surf-rock, lo-fi and other similarly stagnant musical genres. It might make for an interesting album if listened to whilst skydiving nude out of an exploding zeppelin while simultaneously solving a Rubik’s Cube and drinking an entire bottle of cherry wine, but is otherwise best avoided.
