Contrary to the consensual opinion that the world is a place on its last legs, lyrics at the moment seem to revolve around emotive displays of affection rather than the fact World War III is just around the corner. Hot on the heels of The View’s dreamy, “Look at the streetlights, what a pretty sight,” is Bexhill’s finest export Mumm-Ra, with their own tearjerker, “ooowoo, you are the best thing / ooowooo, you just changed everything.” Cheesy? Yes. Good? Exceptionally so. ‘What Would Steve Do?’ is yet another intensely powerful assembly of harmonies and Strokes-esque guitar riffs which prove that Mumm-Ra are very much one of the best ‘new bands’ around. Brilliant.
