Short Stack - This Is Bat Country

UNFD - UNFD169BLP

The band's sophomore effort This Is Bat Country is a collection of lively pop-rock numbers and rock-driven ballads about obsessive love and girls that apparently utterly fascinate singer and guitarist Shaun Diviney. That is not to suggest, though, that the lyrics are corny and one-dimensional; although still relatable enough to suit the pop-rock style of the band, they are delivered in a slightly obscure fashion that leaves something to the imagination. This Is Bat Country contrasts rockier tracks like Are You Afraid Of The Dark? and guitar-driven numbers such as Jack The Ripper with softer ballads such as Werewolves and Ruby Red. One thing that remains invariable across all tracks, however, is Short Stack's incredible ability to create hooks that compel you to sing along.
