Review: Returning to offer more glorious punk-not-punk business, Primo follow up their captivating debut album from two years before, 'Amici', with another collection of strong songs that captivate and speak to you both emotionally and in terms of sheer musical talent, touching on themes like decisions, heartbreak, practicalities and life itself. In many ways, then, it's an exercise in catharsis for both band and the listener, with many of the subjects dealt with clearly here because of a need to make sense of real experiences. In terms of the sonics, there are jangly stompers, such as 'Perfect Paper' and 'Love Days', rhythmic drivers ('1000 Words'), and guttural post-punk-leaning outings such as 'Best & Fairest', and more surreal efforts such as 'Comedy Show'. The result being a varied but coherent must-buy.
