Sydney, Australia quartet have just released their debut album Mostly Sunny and it's an excellent record. It reminded me of many of the things I liked most about Eighties guitar music, Orange Juice, Smiths, Village Hymn era James, Go Betweens, Triffids, Hurrah!
Moments of the record might make you recall these bands and others but Flowertruck never dwell on any one influence and Mostly Sunny is almost always sunny, yet another example of how much truly great music is coming out of Australia right now. A band that first and foremost are clearly having a great time, which let's face it is the key to success in this kind of endeavour. An album infused with infectious positivity and one that gets better the more you explore its depths.
