Some People Are on the Pitch They Think It's All Over It Is Now

by The Dentists

Some People Are on the Pitch They Think It's All Over It Is Now cover art

Named after a famous piece of 1966 World Cup football commentary, this frenetic debut album is a prime example of the mid-80s British guitar pop underground. The Dentists blend the frantic energy of the mod revival with Byrds-esque, 12-string Rickenbacker melodies and a distinctively lo-fi, do-it-yourself ethos. It remains a deeply cherished, cult-classic artifact of the independent jangle pop movement.
