Review: 'Asylums'
'Joy in a Small Wage'   


-  Genre: 'Indie' -  Release Date: '1st June 2015'

Our Rating:
Having been immediately hooked on from the urgent adrenaline rush of ‘I’ve Seen Your Face in a Music magazine’ and the ‘Wet Dream Fanzine EP’, I was practically jizzing my pants when Asylums’ latest offering landed on my doormat. While less frenetic and displaying a poppier side here, they certainly don’t disappoint here.

With a gloriously memorable guitar hook and a tidy bass groove, ‘Joy in a Small Wage’ is a song anyone in the lower pay brackets (i.e. most people who aren’t bankers, doctors or upper-flight executives) will relate to: being skint with a week to payday and the ‘food or booze’ dilemma.

While the wealthy spend their weekends on country estates choosing between a yacht or pacific island and deciding on their next holiday destination or golf course they’d like to frequent next, for the rest of us, there’s no shame in being creative and finding happiness in small, simple pleasures. It’s something Asylums are up for celebrating. And I’m going to raise a pint of homebrew to toast them in that celebration.
