Seven cheeky tracks from South Wales boys Chang, this demo bungs together frantic, punky riffs, itchy drumbeats, and vocals which Vic Reeves would probably describe as "in the club style". Amazingly it all works beautifully, yielding small-but-perfectly-formed three minute nuggets of cartoonish power punk. The choppy rhythms mean it's never a dull listen, and there are little sonic oddities like glockenspiel solos and bass slides to catch you unawares. Like it! 7/10
