Unlike most independent (and skint) new Irish acts, Dubliner’s The Reverb can boast of recording their debut single in sunny California. Produced by Cynthia Catania (of Saucy Monky fame) ‘Stuck in Berlin’ proves a catchy, if uninspiring debut. Powered by a chugging guitar riff, there’s a noticeable US twang to singer John Power’s vocal as he sings over and over again a chorus which (to the band’s credit) lodges in your brain. Yet despite such a contagious hook, there’s little else here to really get excited about. Average.
