Album Reviews
Headstunts
8.0
The problem with The Datsuns is that they released a near perfect debut album to which all their future releases would be compared. While they are still to surpass said debut, that does not mean their future releases weren’t any good. Quite the contrary. As they so adequately prove yet again with “Headstunts” (an anagram for The Datsuns).
Opener “Human Error” jumps right at you like a jack-in-the-box and once that organ kicks in in “Hey! Paranoid People!”, you know you’re in for one hell of a ride with loud guitars, frantic drums and catchy choruses. I could’ve done without the 8-minute closer “Somebody Better” which sounded a little too much like Kula Shaker… never a good thing but other than that this is a whole lot of rock n roll to sink your teeth in!
Tom Dumarey
Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
