    It may be post-punk in the way that the Fonz was proto-punk, but Musa’s tail-thumping ambition to construct the perfect chorus lifts even the lesser songs.

    Raw, rambunctious, rollicking and rowdy, Spring King’s debut offering is further proof that the future of rock ’n' roll is achingly thrilling.

    With a raw energy that engrosses even the casual listener, this Manchester quartet simply take your attention without asking. [25 Jun 2016, p.52]

    Like coiled springs, this Manchester four-piece fire out jabs of tight pop-punk energy that seem created with the intention of filling an indie dancefloor. [Jul 2016, p.79]

    Spring King might have plenty of bangers, but they should switch up their MO more often.

    Inevitably for a debut album, Tell Me If You Like To leans heavily on the singles already released--Demons, Who Are You?, Rectifier, The Summer and Detroit, which is a lot of previously released material for a 10-track, 36-minute album--but it’s all delivered with intensity.
  7. 55
    Disposable lyrics and an overly polished sound doesn’t necessarily mean that this is a bad album, though--it’s not, although it is likely to get lost in the midst of this year’s more thought-provoking and risk-taking albums.
