"Steve from the underrated Scottish trio 18 Wheeler hangs up the oversized rave pants and goes back to playing the Power Pop he was born to play. Visions of Teenage Fanclub, Whiteout, Superstar and Alex Chilton will swirl before you as you hear these songs for the first time. Where 18 Wheeler embraced all things West Coast, Astro Naughty come together to bring out a more Scottish-inspired sound in these songs mixed with leftover California adoration and harmonies that soar like seagulls over the Pacific. With musical hacks such as Ian Brown, Suggs, and those stony blokes who got fired from Spiritualized making dour appearances in the British music weeklies, it's refreshing to hear an obscure artist come back to deliver songs that are stronger than before. Hopefully Alan McGee or someone else with good taste will discover them once again."
