"The Chalets - Check In" reviewed on PopMatters. (2 Viewers)

I apologise for ever comparing the Chalets to Carter USM. I unreservedly take back all inference I ever made that this fine Irish band bore any of the trademarks or sound of the buzzcut Londoners. I now realise how foolish of me it was to say such things, and on behalf of the management and staff at Latchley Industries I wish to apologise profusely and extend the hand of treble brandies all round.
 
It's a sad fact that fun bands don't get taken seriously. By reviewers and by most "music people". Same as comedy films/actors - I saw a review of "Bewitched" in Empire that said Nicole Kidman was shit in it because she's "too good" an actress. What bollocks

Just because it's funny doesn't mean it's a joke

I agree.

I just think that when it comes to 'fun' bands the chalets don't rate that high, I think there are better fun bands out there. The chalets lyrics especially get to me, they're not much fun, just bitchiness and put-downs.


Don't wanna be in their gang, their gang, their gang.
 
Best fun band ever: Go Kart Mozart

[FONT=helvetica, arial] Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break,
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride,
Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer playin' backyard bombardier
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent a dude with a calling card,
he said, do what you like, but don't do it here
Well I jumped up, turnedaround, spit in the air, fell on the ground
Asked him which was the way back home
He said take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night, and then boy, you're on your own.
