Correcto - Do It Better
[Domino]

More herky-jerky art-rock from Glasgow's Correcto now, that is a vast improvement on the nausiating Joni single from last year (read a review). On their debut, the foursome had over-sickly twee vocals, an annoying chorus and feeble guitars that trundled along aimlessly. The 7" became more useful as a drinks coaster, instead of single that would go on to be marred by vinyl crackle from heavy playlisting.

This time the band are proving they are more than just a few friends messing about in the studio inbetween recording with their main bands (Franz, Royal We). Homing in on a post-punk style, the rhythms are lethal and sharp as a knife, but still leaning towards a pop direction that springs to mind The Young Knives or Buzzcocks. The vocals are are intriguing too, a hybrid of Belle & Sebastian's Stuart Murdoch with a slightly Germanic, Kraftwerk hint. Promising stuff indeed.
