Artist: Le Reno Amps
Title: Construction EP
Catalogue Number: Armellodie ARM24
Review Format: CD
Release Year: 2011



More from the almost embarrassingly prolific Scottish band Le Reno Amps as they launch, lurch and otherwise lob their left of centre musical firebombs high in to the air with the release of their "Construction" EP. Despite having only recently released an album, they still have more to give with these six songs being the proof.

I've no idea if they didn't make the grade for inclusion on their album "Appetite" but, even if that were the case, these six songs would make most Scottish bands green with envy. "Had It Enough" is classic Le Reno Amps and, as for "Cosmic Plane", where did they borrow or otherwise redistribute that vocal harmony from? Nevertheless, that song works just out fine too.

Doing catchy songs that don't quite fit the mainstream seems to be the raison d'être of Le Reno Amps and these six songs further reinforces that impression.
