Bingo Fighter - Single Review: Kama Sutra

03 Sep 2020 // A review by darryl baser

Well, as bloody obvious things to write go, music is in the entertainment industry should be fun and entertaining.

With that premise in mind, Bingo Fighter go to the top of the class with their new single Kama Sutra.

The song is lyrically tongue-in-cheek, but I’m not sure whose cheek, gosh, even which cheek for that matter. Musically it’s a balls-out ripper of a song; fast, post rock punk leanings, with an intro verse, pre-chorus, chorus, etc structure.

Released with a fabulous lyric video this song is the first release from Bingo Fighter as a full band, ahead of their first album.

Like many great pop songs, the middle 8 on Kama Sutra is fantastic, and this part of the video may prove educational for some, offensive to others, and will either be blurred or banned. It visually shows images (in tasteful silhouette) relating to the song’s title.

After the middle 8, its coda till the abrupt ending which will catch radio DJs out for a while.

Damn good song, well written and recorded and a heck of a lot of fun. I guess these guys would be fabulous live.

Rating: ( 5 / 5 )

Nika - Single Review: Saviour Complex
03 Nov 2022 // by darryl baser
A song with an interesting title will always grab my attention, and the idea of people with a saviour complex has always fascinated me, so when the new song by Nika called Saviour Complex was offered to me to review I almost somersaulted. The song opens with a gently and alluring piano melody before Nika’s voice kicks in and from the first notes some vocal training is obvious.

While she writes many of her tunes on a piano, and can perform them beautifully with piano and her impressive voice, it is the dance-styled pop versions of her tune which have been garnering her acclaim.
