Peter Parker – Swallow The Rockets

Swallow The Rockets is the debut single by Glasgow quartet Peter Parker. Some new wave guitar strobes and darts through the landscape on Swallow The Rockets, while a girl with the child like cool of Clare Grogan intones the lyrics. Every so often she shoots off, while the smooth alternative guitars provide a steady base. The song only really comes into life in the chorus, but its fun when it does. Temper Temper is more disjointed, where female vocals call and respond and the tune chugs along in a pleasant enough fashion. It’s decent enough, but far too reminiscent of a lot of nineties nondescript female fronted bands.

Swallow The Rockets is released by Lucky Number Nine Records / Say Dirty Records on July 6th
