Helen Love

Jump Up and Down

Label: Che Release Date: 14/08/2000

jmoore by James Moore August 14th, 2000

This is the soundtrack to your worst fuckin’ nightmare

Seriously in future wars people will be shoved into a soundproof room where they'll be forced to listen to Helen Love. In *‘Jump Up and Down’ *they show just how talented they are by repeating “wanna be a punk rock girl” and “jump up and down” about 10 billion times over a programmed “mmmp mmmp” beat.

Then one of them had an ingenious idea of getting the Cuban Boys to co-write their second song ‘Atomic Beat Boy’ and because the Cuban Boys are so amazing they’ve managed to make the worst band in the history of music to sound even sodding worse, well done guys!(& gal) There is a third song called *‘Big Pink Candyfloss Haircut’ *but with such a shit title, I refuse to listen. If you actually like Helen Love please seek serious psychological help or do a Kurt Cobain.
