Released: 05/09

Getting bored of the mainstream 80’s pop cliché comeback? Remember once upon a time when indie-rock bands ruled the world? Everyone loved a good mosh and headbang but then Razorlight became big (and pretentious) and ruined the genre for everyone. Roxy’s Wardrobe reminisce the good old indie-rock days with a versatile bunch of songs that show where our musical roots really should be, whether we’re a youth starting in a band or a Dad rocking at a disco.

First track, Medication, introduces us to Roxy’s Wardrobe with its straightforward lyrics; “She fell in love with the medication,” and its insatiable, unstoppable riff. This EP is four tracks long and each song is made by its drumbeat, setting a consistent, infectious pace; four tracks that effortlessly articulate the tribulations of those marmite (love them or hate them) females. Dead Machine brings to mind early Nirvana with its perplexing combination of instruments that emphasises the drum pounding and puts you in a fixated state of awe: these kids have talent!

Roxy’s Wardrobe are easily likeable and a talent that will go much further than Johnny Borrell’s ego!
