Track of the week: ‘Last Dance’ by The Raveonettes (luister hier)
Average grade: 5.1
Jox: Wow. This one has a super sweet, Belle and Sebastian like sound of the twee indie pop love song. I for one can't get enough, and look forward to the countless closing credits of teen dramas this will be put to.
8/10
Anna: You know what really rubs me the wrong way? Good noise/shoegaze/garage bands turning the distortion down and going all dreamy poppy. I've yet to hear a band that did this and produced poppy tunes that were better than its noisy ones.
STOP SOUNDING LIKE YOU'RE HIGH ON BUBBLEGUM AND BRING BACK THE BLOODY DISTORTION.
3/10, and a calming-down hot bath for me.
Jon: I can imagine the cool kids (outcasts to some) dancing to this at the end of year prom. I am used to a little less pop and a lot more rock from The Raveonettes, although it does maintain that surf rock backbeat the Danish duo are synonymous with. If Jesus and The Mary Chain took Phil Spector to the prom this would be the soundtrack, however disturbing that marriage may be it's not a bad song.
5.7/10 (and may I add that I prefer the demo)
Linda: Met slimme lyrics was dit nummer misschien nog te redden geweest, maar nu is het gewoon een dertien in een dozijn nummer. En hoewel je in tijden van crisis graag meer zou willen krijgen dan waar je voor betaalt, geldt helaas voor the Raveonettes dat nog steeds niet voor middelmatige popnummers.

Stef: The Raveonettes were hit by the Alphabeat magic wand I suppose. Sugarcane tastes good apparently.
