THE REAL KIDS
Down To You (Tko)

Reviewed by John Sekerka



The Real kids are back indeed. After some reunion gigs and many rumours, Boston's finest ready a full fledged record. In the meantime you'll have to make do with this four tracker. Sounding fresh, vital and driven, The Real Kids pick up exactly where they left off some twenty years ago: leading the charge of power pop, and sounding a helluva lot like The Undertones. Not a bad thing that, especially since their knack for writing catchy tunes seems intact.
