I understand that this Sydney band have been at the heart of some controversy down under after they were named best live band by some radio station leading to a lot of this;

Which despite it being Australian I hear delivered in the full Question Time gammon 'eh but would you bomb t'North Korea'
I am secretly hoping the two blokes shrouded in bee keeper hats are long standing OSG members!
The album and the related remixes are IMO the ultimate in ultra poptimism, funny, sassy and as cheeky as that Athena poster with the tennis player scratching her arse. Every track is a smile inducing joy hopping from channeling Loose Joints, shaking it's ass at Dee Light, pumping it like a hyperactive teenage Golden Teacher on special measures, hopping on the S- Express, channeling Yello at their most trashy, lovable and preposterous, riffling through War's drawers, popping their bubblegum at LCD Soundsystem, going two by two into the Crystal Ark, sucking really hard on some Glass Candy, introducing the Free Design to party drugs, twisting their curls to Sylvester, riffling through Screamadelica's bins and there's no getting a way from this...how you hoped Girls Aloud would really sound. The full 12' inches of party, full of E numbers and more artificial colouring than Donald Trump.
Janet Planet is a fucking killing front woman, a volcano of pep and I honestly haven't had a record make me this happy since...since...well I can't remember!
It's one for all the family but fair warning there's a fair bit of drug referencing and a fair bit of making David dance like he's got an undiagnosed brain injury.
The album and remix 12' is out on Heavenly who have a pretty nice roster at the moment with the likes of Stealing Sheep and Gwenno.
