EP Review - Casual Sex - The Bastard Beat EP
Funk’s not dead. It has been resurrected by this Glasgow four piece with a fondness for throbbing bass riffs. Cheekily dubbed under the genre of ‘sleaze’ on their Facebook page, what you hear is what you expect from a band with a name like Casual Sex.
The Bastard Beat is the follow up to the rather spectacular Stroh 80 single released earlier this year. However, the glorious greasiness of Stroh 80 has slid off this EP and has been replaced by manic lust.
Opener Nothing on Earth has jaunty Orange Juice-esque guitars and women chanting in unison proclaiming that ‘Daddy’s on time’. The Bastard Beat consists of uncomfortably catchy bass and vocals that sound like the beautiful love child of Alex Kapranos and smut.
The Sound of Casual Sex is a misnomer (ooh er missus!). Excitable guitar is coupled with a filthily addictive bass.
What’s Your Daughter For? is the definite highlight of the bunch. It the has modest lyrics of, "the only reason we had it hot / she thought I was something I was not" and a pinch of raunchy dust thrown in for good measure.
Ooh, Casual Sex, you are awful! But I like you.
- Holly Callender
Casual Sex - The Bastard Beat EP is out now via We Can Still Picnic Records. Available as a 12" vinyl or download.
