intro
Perfect Rickenbacker C-86 pop on second EP from Scottish outfit, Bubblegum Leomande
‘Susan’s in the Sky’ is the second EP from new Scottish outfit, Bubblegum Lemonade, and carries on from their great work on their debut EP, ‘Ten Years Younger'. The title track is a Rickenbacker C-86 jangle pop number and sounds like a combination of the Jesus and Mary Chain and the Primitives. The clever-titled ‘Surfin' USB’ is another track of Rickenbacker heaven and this time nods towards Brian Wilson, It is a song full of Sunday morning dreams. ‘Just Like You’ is full of Jesus and Mary Chain fire and anger.‘Holocaust’, a cover of the song by Big Star, reworks that track as a slow Rickenbacker pop number and with C-86 charm.
