[transcript from Sound Nation magazine August 2005]
Iasobe? is the first offering from Boobytrap's Kentucky AFC since the release of their debut album. This EP features four songs plus the six-minute plus instrumental, Gizmo.
Y Salwch kicks off with good, jangly, guitars which lead into a strong, Supergrass-ish chorus, and the more rocky Y Gwan A I Flydd demonstrates great riff-writing ability. Praidd relies more upon instrumentation to drive the song but still shows the band's raucous but disciplined vocals, then fourth track Un Ffordd opens with pounding drums and a frenetic pace.
All the songs are guitar driven, and Kentucky AFC certainly prove their talents at writing catchy riffs. The production (courtesy of the band, plus Matth from The Keys and Dyl Mei at Cardiff's Music Box) is a little fuzzy but this only adds to the raw sound of the EP. This is a positive release from the band and is set to be a fan pleaser. VE
