"The debut 7” from Melbourne DIY pop group Carpet Burn. Double-headed by Kayley Langdon (Blonde Revolver) and Tam Richards-Matlakowski (Tam Vantage, Girlatones, Permits), while rhythmically supported by Amada Monteiro (Gutter Girls) and Louis McDonald (Plastic), I Can’t Believe It’s Not Carpet Burn wrangles the group’s knack for clever songwriting and an eye for absurdity to offer up a collection of idiosyncratic and charmingly off-kilter guitar-pop.
Built around a tangle of wobbly guitar and organ over a restless rhythm section, ICBINCB radiates with a sort-of offbeat charisma, Carpet Burn sounding as wide-eyed and whimsical as they are irreverent across these four tracks."
Smooth guitar pop from Melbourne, Australia. 'Butterfinger Hands' is taken from forthcoming the debut 7” of Carpet Burn. Releases June 18, 2021.
