Take a bit of Roxy Music, T-Rex and the New York Dolls to get an idea what Brighton & Hove based quintet Not Richard & Her Majesty sound like. Their debut EP Not Hot is a spicy mix of punk, late 60s pop, and glam rock. The music is deceptively upbeat, which means that casual listeners will miss the pet peeves and emotional turmoil that are the main subjects for the lyrics.
Enjoy as is fine, but there quite a few layers to explore, some of them hidden behind bravado and a dry sense of humour. Not Hot is cheaper than therapy and a lot more fun.
Not Hot is a self-released EP. Buy it from their website. It is available on all the usual digital services.
