intro
Disappointingly mainstream second single from their forthcoming third album, 'Midnight Boom', from usally excellent punk/new wave duo the Kills
'Cheap and Cheerful' is the second single from raw-sounding punk/new wave duo the Kills' forthcoming third album,'Midnight Boom'. Sadly this is a rather mainstream offering from these guys and comes as something of a shock. It has more of an electronica feel than their previous records, is poppy in sound and is very easy on the ears. It is not what you would expect at all from this usually excellent act.
