PETTER & THE PIX – NEVER NEVER

Rate this item
(3 votes)

petter-coverReleased ahead of their forthcoming GOOD AS GOLD long player, six piece Swedish outfit Petter & The Pix give a taster with new single NEVER NEVER here.

Brother of Pontus Winnberg of Bloodshy & Avant who worked on Britney Spear's Toxic, Petter is an Icelandic based musician whose band is made up of school friends and members of Mum and Gusgus. Following debut album EASILY TRICKED in 2008, GOOD AS GOLD is Petter & The Pix latest opus.

NEVER NEVER is an infectious sounding single that straddles that oh so fine line between the annoying and the catchy with its naggingly delirious “la la la la la la la” melodies running throughout the song; echoes of the Kaiser Chiefs Na Na Na Na Naa and the Gorillaz zavvi19-2000.

Perhaps not the kind of thing to stand up to prolonged listens, NEVER NEVER is catchy pop in a summery, throwaway kind of way, but definitely the sort of song that will soon start to grate on your nerves after one too many airings.
Still, as delirious indie pop singles go, NEVER NEVER is buoyantly infectious sounding stuff and certainly leaves you hungry to hear more from Petter & The Pix.
