The Teenagers – Love No

Love No isn’t going to have the same impact as last year’s cult favorite, Homecoming. They’ve toned down their swearing and the plotting doesn’t have the same appeal, although it still raises a few smiles with references to an unhealthy addiction to the film Showgirls and an appeal to “stop smoking all the time”.

It’s a decent tune and Delafon’s bitchy deadpan delivery works well in the context of their style. They have their own distinctive and unique sound, and while they do seem to be moving forward, the tracks are a bit repetitive. The album is due out soon, and will demonstrate whether they have the ability to be more than just a novelty act.
