How the Music Critic Score works
Riding a crest of US praise for their scathing bubblegum pop, stylish punksters Kaito have finally decided to grace their home shores with their debut album. Until now, all they gave us was 2003's Kaito EP, which was packed with searing guitars and scratchy, chaotic rhythms, with singer Niki Colt sulking, strutting and stuttering her way through the chaos. Those songs turn out to be the pop highlights of this album.
