Released this week and featuring a trio of terribly catchy grunge rock tunes, the Sicking & Creaming EP from London’s Japanese Voyeurs is a remarkably edgy and accomplished debut.
OK, so the female lead singer really needs to rein herself in from time to time but her overly enthusiastic approach is a style which does become vaguely endearing after a while. Honest. And if you want to see what all the fuss is about we’ve bagged the promo clip for the EP’s title track Dumb. In the midst of a critically acclaimed 10-date UK tour with Johnny Foreigner, the Voyeurs are set to follow up their EP with a full length album in the New Year.
If this tetchy little taster is anything to go by – we love the grinding riff on X-Ray Ted – expect a bit of a buzz around the crazy quintet come 2010. And you can say you saw/heard them here first.
