This Is Music : COPY HAHO + Eagleowl + Debutant

Friday, March 5th, 2010

As at home in smooth and laidback mode as they are in anthemic and shouty, the range of sounds Copy Haho accommodate is the carefree equivalent of a sleepy Sunday morning with a blast of Saturday night flashback.
Hailing from Stonehaven, these small-town boys do big-time indie pop with an aplomb that belies their modest roots. The four-piece are a welcome boost to Aberdeen’s music scene, borne as they are of two current members of project:venhell (PVH].
Play: Copy Haho – Pulling Push Ups on the green button
But where PVH are all screechy axes and electro vocals, Copy Haho tone it down with jangling guitars and a pleasingly dreamlike quality.
Their lilting indie pop draws inevitable comparisons to the scuzz-rock stylings of Pavement, while Joe Hearty’s drawling voice rasping out lyrics in unconventional love song ‘You Are My Coalmine’ (“I’m the dirt on your nails/You’re the dirt on mine”) is lyrically reminiscent of The View.
