I Can't Believe You Said That
Incredibly, it's now over a year since I shared 'No Sign' by the Serafina Steer led trio Bas Jan (here), a song that would go on to be one of my favourites of 2017. Now, finally, after considerable line-up to-ing and fro-ing within the ranks, comes the band's debut long player, 'Yes I Jan'. It's a sparse, spiky, post-punk affair that deals in the mundanities of everyday life and has more brilliantly quirky pop songs than you can shake a stick at. If you find that 'Argument' hits the spot, check out the whole album over at the Lost Map Bandcamp page.
