TUNNG – Bullets (Full Time Hobby – 15/10/07)

Review by Dawn

Bullets has the kind of infectious beat which continues to resonate in your head long after you’ve pressed the stop button on Winamp and, with its deceptively cheery tune and “na-na-na”s, it could remain there for some time to come.

Not that that’s such a bad thing. The London six-piece manage to back up this catchiness with poetic lyrics and intricately layered sounds such as tin whistles and typewriter keys, not to mention singer Sam’s soothing vocals and a haunting, Day In The Life-esque melody.

It’s all topped off with a wonderfully weird, space-themed video which needs to be seen to be believed – although, to be honest, I’m still a little disturbed by the melting rubber duck… Tunng tour in October.
