Review: Bluejuice - Company

I wasn't particularly excited anout Bluejuice's third record.  Don't get me wrong Jake and Stav from the band are hilarious and seem like nice people, but their songs are quite samey and struggle to have any real lasting impact.  Although 'Act Yr Age' is a good party starter and fun song but it just seems Bluejuice's whole aim was just to recreate those fun pop vibes.  Some of the better songs on 'Company' are 'The Recession' , 'Shock' and 'On My own', less memorable songs are 'You Haven't Changed', 'Aspen, New York' and 'Kindaevil' sounds like it came right out of a crappy nightclub. Bluejuice are like an iPhone game, fun to pick up and play occasionally but if you binge on them for too long you will cringe at the sight of them for the next few months.  Nothing is wrong with an upbeat pop song and these guys have nearly got it mastered.  If you aren't looking for much mental stimulation and just a bit of fun 'Company' will do you well.

7/10
