[center][b][i]The Aquabats - Giant Robot Birdhead[/i][/b][/center]

This is a quirky little song. It is about, as you might guess, a giant robot called Birdhead, so it's hardly the most serious song in the world. It starts off with some synthy stuff a bit like The Epoxies before the vocals come-in over a ska-like rhythm with staccato guitar blasts and an offbeat bassline. There's also some nice little horns in places. The vocals are deliberately over-the-top with group backing vocals. They remind me slightly of Reverend Norb from Boris the Sprinkler. For the chorus the synth comes back in. There's a cool guitar part after the chorus. This song is simple and fun, it's not meant to change the world but it holds your attention and gets your head nodding and that's all you really need. 7/10
