Liverpool's Hooton Tennis Club take a diary-style approach, penning songs about their own lives. They write about their friends - fictional and real - and have their own quirky characters come to life through an effervescent brand of jangle-pop. With the Merseyside four-piece's second full-length, they've expounded on what made their debut such a delight. Whereas 'Higher Point In Cliff Town' was a band testing their own waters, 'Big Box of Chocolates' digs beautifully into themes of joy and the bittersweet, of both love and loss, a heightened audacity to their lyricism. Naturally, it's filled with Parquet Courts-style slacker rock and the '90s guitar essences of Pavement. In this style, Hooton Tennis Club have composed an enchanting, charming open love letter about those close to home.
