Review: 'GOLD NEEDLES, THE'
'Mood Elevator'   

-  Label: 'Big Stir Records'
-  Genre: 'Pop' -  Release Date: '12th December 2025'

Our Rating:
This is a record founded on a nostalgia for the kind of accessible, melodic songs that sound good on daytime radio.

The fact that The Bay City Rollers are specifically cited by the Hull-based band as a key inspiration should set the alarm bells ringing.

Adjectives like “punchy”, “infectious” and “relatable” are hopefully deployed to describe an album which is deliberately constructed as a throwback to bland 80s pop.

The ten tunes glide by inoffensively enough yet are also entirely forgettable.
