The Hillfields It’ll Never Be The Same Again album from last year was criminally underrated and they have followed it up with an EP that hopefully will be on more than the just usual suspects radar. The bands earlier recordings were fragile and charming, not to dissimilar to the gentler bands on Sarah Records. This was in complete contrast to the band’s live sound which was (and is) much stronger, louder and mid eighties sounding which has now made it’s way to the new Come Outside EP.

Opener Colour It In is darker and is reminiscent of the Bunnymen’s gloomier moments whilst stand out track Talk Too Much harks back to the Dunedin scene. They haven’t lost their delicateness however. Roddy Frame could have written Not on Holiday and on the short but sweet Mixtape singer Rob Boyd swaps his surname with Forster from the Go-Betweens.

Whilst I have mentioned many bands here The Hillfields don’t rip them off willy nilly but fuse them to great effect as Canvey Island Queen demonstrates and they finish with the minute long What Do You Mean which has a far greater impact then England at the world cup!

The Come Outside EP is a mighty fine EP drawing from the bands (and mine!) favourite influences. Whether you like indiepop in general or music inspired by the likes of Flying Nun or Liverpool in the early 1980′s then this should be an essential purchase.

The Come Outside EP is out now on Underused Records in both physical and digital formats.
