    The only thing that prevents Fantastic Playroom from being a wholly perfect creation is the simple fact that, as good as it is, this is still only their first album.
  2. Drowned In Sound

    After the sass and bluster of the first half, the record settles into a rather one-dimensional groove.

    New Young Pony Club claim they can give us what we want, but they haven't got a clue what we need.

    To the CSS fan(s) you should know that Ice Cream and The Get Go were originally released in 2005 and CSS were aware of it. The bands are both fans of each other too so what's you problem?… Expand
