about
"Hell yeah! Isn't music fun? SINGLE OF THE MONTH" - Loud Horizon
"If there's any justice, Hoverfly will remind people why music was invented" -isthismusic?
"Electro-punk dancefloor fun... makes any other band look boring" -Neon Buzz
"Catchy as hell... an explosion in a paint factory. In 3D. With surround sound"-Soundsxp
"The best fun in ages, and a band with more sparks of imagination than most." - Manchester Music
Another slice of fizzy lo-fi synthpop punk from the ever good Inconsolables. A rampage of pop and fast firey fun. - Organ Magazine
Rough Trade say:
"Second single from the hyperactive north london sextet combines dashes of Devo and Dick Dale with Mike Leigh's 'Abigail's Party'. The opening bars of bleepy synths on 'Hoverfly' suggest you're in Super Mario Land and then suddenly you're on some conveyor belt ride through a riot of noise: first it's the crashing boy-sung electro-punk verses and then there's the ultra poppy girly choruses of 'la-la-las'. If you're one of these people with synaesthesia, where you see music as colours, you'll be hearing an explosion in a paint factory - in 3d, with surround sound. There's a double b-side offering value for money; 'Hydra' is like a hyperactive Pulp, if someone had laced Jarvis' Coco Pops with amphetamines, while the terrific instrumental 'Surf Rats' sounds like Ennio Morricone conducting Dick Dale."
