The Babies are something of a lo-fi supergroup, comprising one Vivan Girl and one Wood. But the one album they've released doesn't sound all that much like either of those bands do. Instead, it takes the kind of boy-girl vocal setup we all love and mixes it with some sixties-sounding rumble. It's hardly innovative, but they've got some cracking songs, and it's a fun distraction from their other bands, so it's fine.
I saw them live the other day and this was the highlight. It's an instant classic of its kind, with a stupidly catchy tune and suitably inane lyrics. Ace!
