The Stiffys - Champagne (12/11/2013)
The Stiffys are the epitome of a ripper party band. Their universally simple and effective approach to fun and grubby lyrics over a fun and grubby sound reeks of early AC/DC, and what they do, they do with rather glorious aplomb.
The fact that everyone of their songs are stuffed to the hilt with sexual innuendo, they spend most of their waking hours tucked in to homoerotic sailor outfits, and they’re band name is The Stiffys rounds out a trademark look and sound that makes listening to this two-piece fun explosion while standing still with a straight face nothing less than absolute impossibility.
The single Champagne from their forthcoming EP of the same name audibly lands somewhere between a mid-paced Queens of the Stone Age song and a Bluejuice party anthem. The sludgy rock n’ roll canter from Bassist Jason Leigh and drummer Adam Stagg throughout is head-bang worthy, and (unsurprisingly) rather sexual. It works a treat that will, as the song so naughtily requests, have you doing “The sexy dance” in no time.
B-side I’m Really Good At Sex Because I’m Always Doing It is a poppy and infectious pearler of a rock n’ roll song. If they do the sex as well as they do the party starting dance floor filler than any willing participants should form an orderly line to get these two gents betwixt the sheets quick smart.
