The Shake Up – ‘What Are You Worried About’
[audio:http://whothehell.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/The%20Shake%20Up%20-%20Worried%20About.mp3]

Cranking the garage rock aesthetic up to eleven, The Shake Up rock hard for a three-piece. It’s raw and brimming with punk energy, but stuffed with infectious choruses. And radio fave, ‘What Are You Worried About’, is a perfect example. Short and fast, a quick burst of energy that hits you and before you know it, it’s over. Joe Strummer would be proud.

It comes from their debut EP, Socio-Political – four tracks of which only one actually gets over 3 minutes in length. Usually we shuffle readers off to a band’s MySpace page, but their website is so nicely constructed that I reckon you should check that out first, before heading over the Murdoch land and listening to the rest of this band’s material.
