Sigh. You know this is going to be a hugely overlooked album, and that is sad.

Full Of Fancy are perfectly pleasing, sugar-coated female-fronted power pop, but they don’t have the bells n’ whistles to make an impact on today’s Soviettes/Epoxies topsy-turvy post-9/11 world.

Rather than pop punk, they really hail from the twee pop camp, which is a timeless sound but unfortunately forgotten since the 1990s. Cub is their most direct ancestor; All Girl Summer Fun Band could be an older cousin.

Call me whatever emasculating locker-room insult you wish – I adore this type of ultra-girly pop: listlessly energetic but poppy; lyrics that make me proud of being a child of the 80s; female vox that are vulnerable and girl-next-door, but oh-so cutesy with heart-warming background ah-ah-ah’s.

Full Of Fancy are feel-good fun and they make feel as sweet and squishy as the gummy bears that adorn their cover.

Bottom Line:
Notable Tracks: Stone’s Throw, 30 Days, Polly-O String Theory, Human Pudding
