Oh No! Oh My! - Walk In The Park
How to replicate the sound of a whistling man on a text space? Pretty much impossible but perhaps if you listen to this song a couple of times you’ll be able to supply the low piercing noise yourself. You see ‘Walk In The Park’ is a perfect little record, soft and clean lined and at just 2.23 perfectly suited to timing your morning runny one. The Austin based quartet Oh No! Oh My! appear to be big fans of the exclamation mark yet their music betrays that sense of dramatics, instead they concentrate efforts on sublimely simple melodies that are beyond the comprehension of most bands. There’s a certain sense of Belle & Sebastian to the twee utterances (with the lyrics deliciously falling right out of sync with the glee music on occasion) of ‘Walk In The Park’, which if you are in the know will brighten your day. This has appeal for every surviving member of your family tree, it may even save Christmas after the remote refuses to budge. KD
