Mike TV – Money Shot

Charlie Bucket was a tad drippy for my liking, the real star of the kids in Willy Wonka was always Mike TV. Pretty neat character, full of his own self-confidence, a total brat but engaging all the same. So it was a no brainer purchase when a Leitrim quartet (a novelty in itself) decided to use the underage gunslingers character as their band name. Headed up by Rory McPartland Mike TV’s time on earth was short but they left us with at least one memorable moment in ‘Money Shot’. The guitars are off the cuff, the rhythms are quirky and the whole piece approximates a winning They Might Be Giants effort. It could probably drive some people insane while others will lavish in its non-linear approach. As a bonus please also find attached the brash charms of Veruca Salt’s ‘Seether’. KD
