Considering the recent success of similar bands, it boggles the mind as to why Working Class Heroes are not yet signed and currently getting their name and logo frequently impulse-tattooed onto the pastey legs of young rock pop fans drunk on cheap vodka in a dirty gazebo at some festival.

Unfortunately however, I feel that it is inevitable to mention the word ‘Paramore’ at some point in this review, so lets get it out of the way now and then we can all get over it and move on. Some may consider this as a case of generalising and stereotyping the band just because they have a female vocalist, and although everyone is entitled to their own opinion, these people are in this particular case, wrong.

This is not stereotyping in any shape or form; it is but a compliment as to how tight, diverse and down right exciting WCH are. Having a female vocalist who is packed with talent, attitude and charisma is far from a bad thing, and even though it may be suggested that Paramore have already covered this market, it is worth remembering that Working Class Heroes are not actually Paramore and offer a whole lot more.

With poppy tracks like ‘Do You Know’ that encapsulate Summer better than an ice cream van’s melody this band really do deserve to be judged as their own band; i.e., not compared with the obvious peers.

Although many bands are starting to emerge from the South Wales scene with similar music to this, none are doing it as precisely well with the consistence of Working Class Heroes. This EP signifies how much the band have grown since their last material, and it is about time that people sit up and realise that they ain’t no Paramore tribute band - they are Working Class Heroes and they WILL be stuck in your head for the next month.
