Up In Flames

Up In Flames

Barry O Donoghue

Is it disco? Is it rock? Funk? Soul? Techno? No! It’s all of the above! Hooray! Snax and Khan’s second LP is an album of glorious contrasts – Prince-esque shoutalongs (‘Up In Flames’), perv-funk (‘Na Na Now’), drug-addled blues (‘Poppertalk Blues’) or rigid synth-pop (‘Night To Begin’). Brilliant.
