Sheffield's had its ups and downs as far as music scenes go. On the upside you've had Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League, Pulp and the Arctic Monkeys. Unfortunately there's also been Def Leppard, Joe Cocker and now this to reflect the distasteful side of the city through a cracked mirror.
'Poseur' sounds like one of those songs that was put together either for the purpose of a deodorant commercial or for one of those cheesey 'let's form a band!' type dramas where the song ends up sounding like... this. Imagine Babylon Zoo, Kosheen and the leftover remains of Maxi King Adora's larynx raping the corpse of EMF and you're halfway there.
Even the band's name, BabyPinkStar, conjures up images of second rate soap stars having a day out with their mates that didn't quite make the grade at drama school.
Horrible.
