"Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole." Sure, classic words from the lips of Jonathan Richman in his ultra legendary days as the lead Modern Lover, but also words that could never be said of the quartet seasoned well beyond the years and happily and unabashedly lost in their shared passions and talents, Melbourne's latest gift to those interested in a world of creation, Kisschasy. Consisting of a fantastic four coalesced between Darren "Daz" Cordeux (vocals, guitar), Joel Vanderuit (bass, vocals), Sean Thomas (guitar) and the ever-muscled, animated Karl Ammitzboli(drums, vocals), their full length United Paper People debut has them ascending rightfully amidst a whirlwind tour, inclusion in the prestigious SXSW'06 conference ongoing and an inclusion in numerous summer festivals surely. With a vitality, urgency and raw joy in what they do wonderfully apparent, this 48 minute, 15-track labor of infectious love needs not beg to be listened to from start to finish. You simply must. "Do-Do's & Whoa-Oh's" starts off harmlessly, but soon sucks you into its emboldening mindset with its intricate, yet simple layering that finds you speeding up and smiling in whatever you are doing at the moment. An accomplishment and more in most cases that continues unabated in the more substantial, truth calling in the sly sarcasm of a torn glee found in "With Friends Like You, Who Needs Friends?" "Morning" provides a solo reflective acoustic moment of loyalty for Cordeux. The swinging yes and no questioning curiosity into resolve of "Hearing Voice Tonight" shows the sum of power shared between that makes these four a sure bet for inclusion for the long haul amidst of sea of unworthy vessels. "Interlude" chugs and haunts about in a dreamy lumber into the sunny, meandering of "Water On A Stove" that further establishes the burgeoning growth within these travels. Perhaps it's why they put a gust-pushed hot-air balloon on the cover. After all, they're a band on a run, around the world in just 80 days with many circumnavigations ahead. reviewed by michael
