Flamingo Crash – ‘It’s Mystery Music!’
I don’t mean to be a negative-nancy, but I really didn’t expect too much of Brisbane band Flamingo Crash’s forthcoming Magoo-produced album… until I heard the first single, ‘It’s Mystery Music!’. Now my expectations are sky-high. It’s Architecture in Helsinki reminiscent quirk-pop made 4 stars with a Neptunes keyboard line and surprising saxophone interludes, and the freshest thing to come out of Brisbane in forever.
Honestly, it sounds like a house-band segment from the Young Ones, and who else sounds like that at the moment? Eat shit my low expectations.

One would have to be mad, literally insane, not to expect very, very much from Flamingo Crash. Srzly.
