Two Days by RHUM
Written by Nick Hutchins
I really like this track, it makes me smile and it’s easy to listen to. Most of the music I'm sent gets ejected and trashed within the first thirty seconds of play for just being utter crap. Pony Face was surprising on two accounts: the cover art for this single is really cool, almost eerie, and the track itself is pleasant. Taken from the forthcoming self-titled debut album which I will be looking to get my hands on, 'Two Days' is a well-crafted four-minute consumption of time – time I was happy to part with.

It is hard to write a whole review based on one track, not to mention I don’t like doing it as it is fraught with presumption and any opinion has to be considered unreliable; after all, we have seen far too many artists with one good track buffering a remaining album full of crap. I like to think given the folksy campfire-circle style and sound of this track that this will not be the case.

Pony Face have an incredibly summery sound, like dust particles dancing in the sunlight or the feeling a really good art-house film gives you. It reminds me of relaxing drives to the beach with the windows rolled all the way down, the warm summer air blowing against my skin. This track just makes me feel happy and relaxed. I keep playing it over again and don’t seem to get sick of hearing it, so that has to be a good sign right?

 
TWO DAYS - SINGLE OF THE WEEK
You know its a rough week when you spend a good minute or so raging against this unopenable new fangled CD packaging the kids are using these days, only to realise the sleeve just has sticky-tape on it. Two days is a lovely song, all plangent guitars barely masking bittersweet, urgent quality that rumbles just below the surface of the song only to reveal itself in the final 30 seconds or so. If this is any indication of its quality, I look forward to their forthcoming debut album.

The first time I ever heard "Warning Bell" I was hypnotized and agitated all at once. I couldn't move until I inhaled every last, achingly beautiful sound, but I also had that impatient need to find out who the fuck they were & where they were from. Ponyface are from Melbourne & I've seen them live, how spoiled are we in this town? Looking very forward to whatever they do next.
