Pyrex Detox - Boomy Room Acoustics EP

Another one from the Sabrettes stable, the title of this EP somehow makes me think of the cavernous aircraft hangar that is the SECC. I always hate it when a decent band plays there as you know that you'll ultimately be disappointed by the Boomy Room Acoustics. Arcade Fire sounded pish there. Mind you, the Primal Scream gig last December was fine - I was right down the front and it sounded fuckin fantastic. Dunno how much of that was due to the nick I was in, right enough...

The A1 track here is a bell-tastic stomper which I've not listened to for ages - glad I've ripped it so it can haunt me on the iPod for the next wee while. A2 is one of those short 'bonus beats' things; why do they have them - so you can sample it?? The B-side tracks are both FAB - I dunno if I've actually ever listened to them right through before now. Some fan I am. Mind you, the whole reason for this blog's existence was to get me to listen to all my old records again. Result! Will definitely listen again, though...

Always thought a Bonus Beat was a cheeky little ploy to persuade you buy two copies of the same 12" so you could do all kinds of fancy mixes in the comfort of yr own bedroom...
