Hi Fi Killers

Sammy: “Hi Fi Killers” (Fire Records)

Sammy combine all the best elements of cool alternative New York rock music but on ‘Hi Fi Killers’, the most obvious influences are Lou Reed and The Pixies. Coy and cutely arresting, this three-quarter-paced slacker melody of hip disaffection and fascination with a mysterious peer lures you into its world of bohemian opportunism and carefree delights with a word of warning: never lose your heart to someone who doesn’t leave you with the key to decode their changes of mind.
