They’re like a tequila slammer – fast, aggressive, kicks like a mule and makes you feel bloody fantastic for about a minute and a half.

The Elvis Suicide are a Scottish band and they like their punk, they like their indie and most of all, they don’t like to hang about. If the Artic Monkeys were in a hurry, they’d still lag behind this lot by a mile. They’re like a tequila slammer – fast, aggressive, kicks like a mule and makes you feel bloody fantastic for about a minute and a half. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, let’s get the hell out of here and not bother with a last verse. The Elvis Suicide are obviously in a band to have fun and to blow off some steam and, let’s be honest, that’s what most people want from a bunch of lads with guitars. They’re not very original, but they are a hell of a lot of fun and that’s more than enough for anyone.
Pass the salt will you?
