Dave G’s 'Desert Creatures' - Fun Machine Review:

If you’re looking for something a little different to add to your CD collection then you’ve certainly got to give Fun Machine’s new EP Desert Creatures a listen. There are very few EPS out there that seem to create as much energy as this one does.

Unfortunately Fun Machine begin on a dud note with a woeful start  ‘Wiahita’ but that soon gives way to a virtual punk sound that shows these guys (and gals) really do know how to rock. ‘Toxic’ is sadly the worst track on the album, to be blunt it sounds like a poor man’s Grates… but luckily it is all gems from then on.

 The catchy pop sound of ‘Coming With Muskets’ with win over a few fans while the fun little duet ‘lol’ got several plays while I was listening to the album. The closing track ‘Ahte’ however is an absolute gem. It’s raw intensity tells you that you must go and see Fun Machine live.

There maybe some misses but Desert Creatures is well worth a listen.

RATING:- *** (out of 5)
