Our Take

Sports Team's debut album "Deep Down Happy" is a rollercoaster of a record from start to finish. The British indie rock band delivers infectious hooks, witty lyrics, and a relentless energy that is sure to get you moving.

Lead singer Alex Rice's charismatic vocals lead the charge, bringing a sense of urgency and passion to each track. The band's tight instrumentation, featuring jangly guitars and driving rhythms, creates a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh.

Tracks like "Here's The Thing" and "Camel Crew" showcase Sports Team's knack for catchy melodies and clever wordplay. The band's sardonic wit shines through in songs like "Long Hot Summer" and "Kutcher," where Rice's lyrics poke fun at popular culture and societal norms.

"Deep Down Happy" is a nostalgic nod to the golden age of indie rock, with nods to bands like The Strokes and Arctic Monkeys. But Sports Team manages to put their own twist on the genre, adding a playful irreverence and infectious energy that sets them apart from their contemporaries.

Overall, "Deep Down Happy" is a triumph for Sports Team, cementing their status as one of the most exciting bands in the UK right now. With their infectious energy and clever songwriting, this album is sure to make you smile, dance, and maybe even shed a tear.
