Release Notes:
For those who found 'Worried About Ray' and 'Goodbye Mr. A' a tad too kooky for
their own good, The Hoosiers' new single should prove more palatable. The
Anglo-Swede trio classify their cartoony musical outpourings as something called
"odd-pop", but 'Worst Case Scenario' leans more heavily on the latter than the
former.
A jagged, angular indie workout, it would stray into Razorlight territory if it
weren't for the frantic drum beat, which conjures up memories of 'Walking On
Sunshine'. Best of all, there's something deliciously cheeky about a song this
exuberant concerning itself with the humdrum existence of a self-willed
pessimist. "You got out the wrong side of bed and liked it," spits frontman
Irwin Sparkes. "The only love you get is unrequited." Hmm. Somewhere out there,
we wonder if Morrissey is listening?
