Forget about all the music you’ve ever heard, just clear your head and start from scratch again like an 8 year in the company of Sgt. Peppers for the first time. Now give this Brighton band a listen and bask in their collective genius. Yep, I bandy the G word about here quite a bit and mostly it’s hardly warranted but this time is different. Labelless and happy to live off the scraps that is the donation paypal button Stars and Sons are currently giving their ‘Goat Show’ EP away for free from their myspace. ‘Fights Already Fought’ sprung from nowhere on what seemed like another aimless shuffle and I was immediately hooked by its baggy demeanour. It is elusive, bewildering and downright heavenly through its stringent policy of non-linearity. Further inspection reveals the generous supply of goodies all over the EP like the beautifully turned profanities on ‘4 Stars’. This band makes my heart skip a beat, which at my age can be very dangerous, but it’s worth the risk. Tip them generously so they can further endanger us. KD
