    The Tacticians - London's Alright

    Urban Folk? I don’t know. Genre names are funny, let’s just say it’s the sort of thing I’ll be sticking on while sobering up after a day’s long drinking session has left me bittersweet to the world. Sort of like a late nineties disillusioned bedsit band doing Kinks songs in a retro-acoustic style with shades of Jarvis Cocker & Pulp. I don't care if it’s about London, any less-than-exuberant large city centre dweller will understand where they're coming from.

    The lyrics left me somewhat unimpressed though, despite the nice (clichéd) sentiment of “lovely lass makes world seem shiney” which I’m a sucker for, and I wish I hadn’t read them and instead just listened to the tune, it’s not made for indepth analysis. It does give off a nice quiet cheery vibe though which is what I guess they were aiming at and so well done to them.



    Released as a limited edition 7" single on Dancing Giraffe Records, London's Alright is currently also available for download.

    I've decided,
    The Tacticians are cool.

    this song had dropped out of my playlist for a wee bit after my review as well but I just stuck it back on now and
