Responsible for one of 2008’s best singles, ‘I Go, I Go, I Go’, the sadly unheralded Wave Machines arrive with a debut album populated with eclectic and willfully eccentric pop music. Alongside the aforementioned classic single are the masterful passive aggressive lament ‘Punk Spirit’ and ‘The Greatest Escape We Ever Made’, a piece of twinkling electronic motorik which is so addictive withdrawal from it might require rehab. Some of the other tracks on the album do not live up to the ridiculously high standard set by this triumvirate, but this album is never dull and occasionally exceptional.
