Staying with the Fortuna’s – next up Evans the Death, featured in these pages to much love and affection for their ’Threads’ debut if I recall rightly – again another album we missed was their self titled debut – more teeth gnashing – released earlier on last Spring. Anyhow enough grumbling – third single from that errant set is ’Catch your Cold’ – a neatly attractive sub three minute rainy Sunday afternoon jaunt through the Siddeleys songbook of yore that nods in no particular order or preference to the Sundays, Another Sunny Day and in some small way the Smiths albeit removed of the hectoring 6th form sarcasm to find itself dipped within a disturbingly dinky and hollowing bitter sweet catchiness accentuated by effervescent showers of slinkily strummed jangling treble-core. Loveable melch-pop all said.
