My Device - Jumbo Fiasco

Rating: 8

My Device might possess a ramshackle indie-rock quality that makes their music sound like it was flung together during an afternoon's practice, but don’t be fooled - this is music planned with military precision. The likes of 'Rusty Trombone' and 'Mybear' are so mentally unhinged, only maximum effort could have gone into their creation. Musically, comparisons to the Pixies are obvious but nonetheless important to understand where this band are coming from. According to this record's accompanying press release My Device have polluted the ears of fans of indie dullards Kasabian, Babyshambles and The Enemy on tour. To be fair, that only makes us love them even more.
