The single - a gloriously ramshackle Lou Reed-style stomper - is a Mauro breakthrough, finding a new songwriting voice, free to contemplate her pretty face on a sunny day. Course he turns out to be some kind of serial killer psychopath - 'I've seen your darkness and it shines'. Not quite there yet then. The rest is Peter Houben's show, writing ballads for assholes ('Hometaped my girlfriend') and inscrutable songs of philosophical heartbreak ('Pinetrees do not lose their fur'). All sounds like they've scotchtaped it together in a Limburg shed, but it was recorded at Galaxy Studios. Slackers in control of their craft, then.
