Scamper play an almost perfect blend of bash and pop, with interesting lyrics, hook-laden melodies, and fuzzy guitars. There is a very real danger that your teeth will begin to rot in your head as you listen to this debut full-length, it's that loaded with sugary sweet vocals. But there's more to Scamper than that; they also write smart songs, and the guitars and rhythm section are hard enough to keep your head bopping and your feet tapping throughout. ..
