\"\"<\/a>When it comes to world class power pop, Italy is leading the way at the moment.\u00a0 And, with their new album, Radio Days are proving major competition against Giuda and Faz Waltz. While their previous releases are all good, \u2018Rave On!\u2019 is their strongest set of tunes. Or, should I say \u201cTUNES!\u201d. With bells on.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018I Got A Love\u2019 is the perfect opener, infectious from the off. This is how you write a great pop song. I\u2019ve been listening to this album for a few weeks, but I never tire of this song, it\u2019s full of energy and sunshine. \u2018Lose Control\u2019 gets the head nodding along, their closest compatriots here \u00a0are The (mighty) Speedways.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018Walk Alone\u2019 is a slower scarf-waver of a tune, with pleasingly Ringo style drums. When people talk about \u201choning your craft\u201d, this is what they mean. It\u2019s a beautiful song. \u2018Running Around\u2019 is like your favourite obscure 70s classic; you\u2019ve heard it done before, but rarely done so well. And \u2018Til The End Of The Night\u2019 is\u2026I\u2019m running out of superlatives. Gorgeous, that\u2019s accurate. Macca would be proud.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018What Is Life?\u2019 is exactly what this upcoming summer ordered. Bright, optimistic and joyful. The perfect accompaniment to a little more freedom to see our friends again. \u2018Meltdown\u2019 is a slight left-turn, catchy like a long lost theme tune. \u2018No One To Blame\u2019 riffs it up like Eureka Machines on a sugar high, \u2018When I\u2019m With You\u2019 reminds me of a cross between Slade and Badfinger; they know their stuff. \u2018Between The Lines\u2019 is a relaxed, classy way to end an album.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Seriously, there are some great bands out there doing this style of music at the moment, but it\u2019s highly unlikely that anyone will release a better power pop album this year. Their peers had better watch out; Radio Days are the finished article now.<\/p>\n
