Throw Me The Statue
Throw Me The Statue make a joyous and harmonious racket. “Lolita” in particular has all the trappings of a great indie pop anthem: catchy, semi-obscure lyrics, a sing-song rhythm, unobtrusive blips and bleeps, and the all-important xylophone. “Winning Speech” is a whole different animal, darker, driving and vocoded. The range between these tracks captures only part of the variety of the band’s album which, for better or worse, is all over the place.
