English duo Dirty Nice bring a catchy mix of fun and weirdness on their Shoes EP. Charlie Pelling and Mark Thompson write songs about everyday stuff (meeting people, falling in love, footwear), but always with a twist. Any band that starts a song with "I met you at that tapas place that does those fancy cocktails // They weren’t as good as last time I was savouring the flavour, savouring you" deserves to be heard.
Jarvis Cocker meets loungey pop, wrapped in a comfortable blanket of cheesy yet endearing synths. Good comedy always has a bit of sadness in it and Dirty Nice have truly mastered that balancing act.
Shoes is released via Chiverin.
