No Access To Launderettes

Review of Holy Joy’s  ‘Claudia Dreams’ by David Quantick and Mark E Smith

 

Deptford’s Midnight Runners
In a charging melodic possible stab
At the charts
A trill miles away from the angular
Carter influencing
Band Of Holy Joy of yore

Did they used to be Band Of Holy Joy?
They’ve cleaned up their act, haven’t they?
Reminds me of someone
(I suggest a vocal similarity to Mick Jones)
Sort of, yeah

That London sound
Precious
Band Of Holy Joy
I’ve got all their records
I quite like them
I liked them when they were dead jagged

They’ve still got that London sound
Which is what you need really
They just look like blokes out of Kilburn
Or Maida Vale
No access to launderettes
