Having heard the earlier singles by Dead Kids, ‘German Heart’ almost sounds a bit tame. Yes, there is the whole belting out the lyrics thing like you’re trying to communicate with someone while on a bus full of school children who’ve just noticed the year’s first snow flakes, but other than that, this would almost classify as a general pop song. However, with all the energy and testosterone piled up in their earlier work, this could be exactly what the London based band needs. With ‘German Heart’ Dead Kids show that they can do more than just write dancefloor killer tracks (if one could ‘just’ do that anyway). It could also be that I’m just getting a bit too old for all this indietronica/new rave/whatever-they-call-it-these-days, and need a breather every once in a while.

(If anyone gets the reference in the title, without using the likes of Google that is, I'm buying them the biggest Christmas present ever)
