COLIN’S GODSON: ‘Ahoy!’
COLIN’S GODSON have returned from their adventures in Space and Time just ahead of Christmas (their Festive offering is also now available through the band’s Bandcamp page) and from the artwork that accompanies the gold disc (!) it looks as though they had planned a journey into The Deep.
Maybe their submarine has been impounded, or maybe they just decided they didn’t fancy going to sea to see what they could see, see, see – but there’s nothing remotely nautical about this release. Instead, we are presented with five tracks, the longest of which only just breaches the two-minute mark, that deal with matters such as Weatherspoon’s staff burning toast and radio presenter / champion of Scottish indie music Jim Gellatly having designs on a career in television.
As with all their earlier recordings, ‘Ahoy,’ is sort of punk based and wrapped in a big, big smile! There’s not much point in me trying to talk you through the tracks when you can listen to them below – or even better, BUY this CD / download for the bargain price advertised so that maybe the lads will be able to fund their next exciting adventure to wherever.
