GARAGE ROCK
After that eight-track debut leaves you salivating for more, there are a whole twelve morsels to devour on the following We Are The Courettes. Hoodoo Hop opens the album and it’s clearly a step even further to the wild side from their debut. Still stripped back retro garage, but this time the sweeter vocals that brushed Here Are… were seemingly pushed to one side in favour of a blender-fed 5,6,7,8’s, definitely the bastard younger sibling of an already wild child. That said, songs like Strawberry Boy still allow the space for the calmer delivery, which, while more soothing, leaves you waiting nervously for the next explosion. There’s not long to wait at all as Voodoo Doll flies in full of trash-garage horror, helped naturally by the appearance of Brazilain horror legend Coffin Joe adding some guest vocals. The album produced some top singles, such as the twanging Time Is Ticking and the primal energy of Boom! Dynamite! which, to go for the easy pun, is a blast. They close out the album with the caressing Fool Fool Fool, a gentle drift after the pace and energy of the rest of the record.
