Oh my the swell of jangle is such that it could be midsummer and we could be taken by the first flush of love. The chiming sets the scene and the lead vocals from James Hilsden just add the icing on top, a comforting friend when you need them. This is sepia-tinged stuff, sixties flourishes and never outstaying its welcome but ensuring we’re feeling a whole lot better about ourselves well before ‘Standards and Practices’ reaches fade out.
