THE SHOUT OUT LOUDS (London 229 Bar, 02/09/08)
The perennial underachievers of the Swedish indie-pop scene, they’ve obviously got the potential for greatness (their songwriting is very high quality) but always seem to let themselves down live with slightly hollow arrangements and a tendency to extend songs way longer than required. On the whole, openers The Boy Least Likely To outshone them, their gleeful sugar-rush of a set happily harkening back to the carefree days of The Best Party Ever before they become all serious and boring.
