What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Ant feeling happy.

They Came From The Stars I Saw Them have a single '(It's Always) Boomtime, Part One' which is currently rotating and it's like some freaky electro pop space opera with kazoos and people being all silly everywhere. When the track peaks it all gets a bit manic but then the chorus of vocal harmony's kicks in. This reminds me of the muppets in space if you gave them a load of instruments and some Fly Agaric Mushrooms. They sound like they're having a right old laugh. The flip 'The Unstoppable Kite' has been out on 12" before and is more cosmic indie pop with lots of futuristic sounds clattering about everywhere. The core of the tracks is really accessible but they push the envelope a bit with their use of electronics.

What the label says:

The a-side, a track from the album 'They Came From The Stars, I Saw Them Vs. Reality' was recorded more than 5 years ago by a completely different group than the one that is wowing live audiences right now with songs such as the one on the aa side of this great 7" single - the extended version of ‘The Unstoppable Kite’ was released earlier in the year on This Is Not An Exit records, who will be releasing Emperor Machine mixes of their next single shortly, followed by a new, new album at the start of the new year.
‘(It's Always) Boomtime, Part One’ is also the first song from the Stars to be accompanied by a pop video - and this is no ordinary pop video, either - made on almost no budget save for that of infinite good will, and featuring They Came From The Stars, I Saw Them's battle with their nemeses - The Reality - the video includes a custard pie fight, a set made out of cardboard boxes, a helicopter, a champion hula-girl, and cameos from Autechre’s  Sean Booth and none less than KEVIN ROWLAND! The extended version of the video features the group flying off into the sunset in a helicopter piloted by the Dexy's frontman - one of pop music's true individuals - in tribute to the way he has influenced and inspired this bunch of Wild-Hearted Outsiders in their mission to try and recreate the joyful sounds of They What Did Come From The Stars
