Five Get Over Excited

The Housemartins' debut for Go! Discs captures the Sheffield indie pop collective at their most exuberant—jangly guitars and deadpan vocals colliding with genuine warmth. Five Get Over Excited announces a band uninterested in the po-faced solemnity of their indie rock peers, instead mining indie pop’s lighter frequencies without sacrificing wit or melodic craft. Go! Discs' early roster instinct proved sound: this is indie pop that sounds like it’s having fun.
