The Crimea - Lottery Winners On Acid

Tragedy Rocks was my favourite album of last year and if all goes to plan they should see the album go from strength to strength this year as people start to come around to their irresistable blend of off the wall kookiness and instant melody.

The Crimea start off their campaign to take things to a wider audience with the release of Lottery Winners On Acid, the drug reference in the song will probably be enough to stop the track getting the airplay it deserves but that doesn’t take away from the actual track itself.

Like the finer moments from Belle And Sebastian it oozes melody and an upbeat jangly quality to the guitar. The track bounces along with a smile on its face and a zip in its stride and should be the bands most successul single to date.

Lottery Winners On Acid is released through Warner Brothers on 9th January. The band have also extended Christmas and during the week of the release will be giving away prizes in the ‘Crimea Lottery’ (see link).
