Deadbeat Cavalier – S/T

By paul

I’m a little indifferent to this Oxford mob – they’re by no means bad, it’s just this 27-minute, 12 track CD kind of passed very quickly without really grabbing my attention all that much. In places the double-speed drums and the punk-edged vocals deserve a cursory glance, but I found myself browsing the internet with more vigour than a good CD really should. At 12 songs you could argue this is a little long, but among the deadbeat (groan) tracks there are a couple of tidy efforts. The skate-punk ‘Send Me To Hell’ woke me from my semi-slumbers, but all too often it’s just a bit obvious and predictable. Not bad by any means, just a little generic.
