SMOKING GIVES YOU BIG TITS guts for starters
SMOKING GIVES YOU BIG TITS Guts For Starters Self-release (28/07/23) The debut album from one of the brightest acts on the DIY scene right now is a technicolour mix of post-punk, spoken-word, alt-rock, ska, and whatever else they bloody well like… welcome to Guts For Starters by Smoking Gives You Big Tits! Political, personal, philosophical, comical, but never predictable, the album covers a diverse range of emotions and styles across its 25-minute run-time. Recent single Porky Pies exudes paranoia across the sludge of its verses, and has a fight or flight release on the double-time chorus. It’s like a musical Ghost Train crawling through the airwaves; creepy, yet in your face when you wheel around the corner. In contrast, the bubblegum pop-grunge of Dance Like You Know… is joyous and celebratory in its underdog status, with neat use of 7/8 timing on the chorus that leaves you feeling slightly disoriented, much like a nervous dancer trying to find the beat down at the local disco....
