Christmas Advent #2 – Take Me By The Hand, I Don’t Give A Damn

WESTKUST’s ‘LAST FOREVER’ LP sounds like all your favourite songs being played in a row between Veronica Falls and Makthaverskan in the ultimate Goth party of Dai Disco’s dreams. Spiking guitars and thundering choruses collide in a tidal wave that sweeps you off your feet, leaving you breathless for 33 minutes of storming fuzzed-up pop euphoria. Dai Disco, Lesher, and Dai Goth have all succumbed to its beauty, sacrificing what could have been a bottle of Crumpton Oaks to secure it, here. Even Lesher (who values Crumpton Oaks over almost anything), believes it to be his finest purchase ever for under a fiver, and was heard recently saying “ahhh not even Frosty Jacks on cold winter night comes close to this, lovely stuff.”
