Last August, I fell in love.
"If you're looking for the best new band of 2021, it's time to call off the search."
Then in October, it happened again.
By this point, I was certain that the eventual debut album could not live up to the strength of those two singles... and of course, it doesn't. Just as Different Class wasn't 12 songs as strong as Common People and Disco 2000; Born To Run wasn't 12 songs that were equal to the title track and Thunder Road; and the Rolling Stones never made an entire album of Street-fighting Men and Sympathies For The Devil.
Ridiculous expectations aside, I can confirm that the Wet Leg album is very, very good. And best of all, it's lots of fun. In fact, it's just like Being In Love...
Still good - and now the sun is out, it just seems to take on a new dimension. Great in April, even better in June.
