Peter Parker- 'Swallow The Rockets' (Lucky Number Nine/Say Dirty)
Peter Parker’s debut single has an infectious quality that grabs you right from the start, as Roz Davies’ rapid vocal delivery combines with a deliciously scuzzy guitar riff. Roz’s vocals are pleasingly punchy and abrasive, a bit like when you’re in a bad mood and want to start an argument for no reason.
Everything about this song- the vocals, guitar, bass and drums- just sounds right. ‘Swallow The Rockets’ is the kind of exciting, messed-up pop that makes you want to pogo like a hyperactive child who has just smashed their neighbors’ window with a football. There’s nothing contrived, no fancy bells and whistles, just a band who know what a killer tune sounds like. And make no mistake, ‘Swallow The Rockets’ is a killer tune.
‘Temper Temper’, the B-side, is pretty nifty as well. From the disjointed, punky verse to the catchy-as-hell chorus, it’s a brilliantly addictive, sharp-edged pop song. More of this please!
