Limozine frontman Dean’s habit of half-shouting, half-speaking his vocals, combined with his London town accent, gives ‘El Presidente’ something of a Brit-pop vibe, particularly during the chorus, where Dean’s splutters ricochet off twitchy, poppy “a-hey-hey-hey!” backing vocals.

The light and inoffensive guitars are drowned out by the drums’ relentless jangle, making this a brisk, breezy piece of rattling indie-pop, with vocals that hark back to a previous musical era. However, it’s all pretty straightforward and, at a mere two and a half minutes long, ‘El Presidente’ doesn’t demand repeat listens. It’s an enjoyable enough jaunt on the first listen - and exactly the same on the seventh.

‘El Presidente’ are lacking that one irresistible hook, or some additional depth, to keep the listener coming back for more.
