The Delilahs - ‘This Is It’ (Jexed) Released 06/03/06

OK, let’s get the joke out of the way early: The Delilahs may be Swiss, but there’s nothing cheesy about this trio! Right, we’d better make this brief as the Gigwise editor seems to want a word… The Delilah’s are Muriel Rhyner and her two schoolfriends who decided that careers in watch-making and banking weren’t for them so chose to have a go at general rock and roll sexiness instead. And so, guess what? ‘This Is It’.  One can only presume ‘It’ is the place where Elastica and The Vines are somewhat randomly thrown together, or where L7 get a makeover from the Queens of Noize, as it rocks in a fairly derivative kind of way. That said, the beole remix gives the whole thing a beautifully European trashy sheen and may well be the version that you hear down the local indie club. Short, sweet and satisfactory (just).
