The Wave Pictures : ‘Strawberry Cables’

The Wave Pictures : ‘Strawberry Cables’

 

Released: 26th October 2009

Label: Moshi Moshi Records

 

I never thought I would hear the words “Running like a runny egg sandwich” in any song, ever. Let alone for them to open the song but, The Wave Pictures have handed me this, as if on a plate, accompanied by “tangled up Strawberry Cables”.

‘Strawberry Cables’ is just that - a truly edible song, full of white chocolate and greed: “this is mine, it isn’t anybody else’s”.

Dave Tattersall’s vocals croon over the simple strum of the guitar, the tiny tap of a drum and the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it brass, creating a new turn for the indie/rock scene; subtle and melancholic with a hint of irony and quirk.
