Band Of The Weekish: The Computers


I like bands like The Computers, I also happen to like the band The Computers, In which I mean I like bands that are constant and don’t spend forever until they put some more music out, even if it’s just a mini-album of Misfits covers, bang it out there, give people something to listen to, don’t for fucksake take a rest, you’ve got time later on to take a rest. Like these NME bands of the week who release and album and fuck off for 6-7 years creating their next masterpiece, which turns out to surprise surprise be a steaming pile of shite, no I prefer my bands prolific and in this case fast and catchy

I recommend the new album ‘Love Triangles Hate Squares’ it has a real 50’s rock’n’roll vibe, Happy Days are indeed here again
