Lead single and opener ‘Are We Ready? (Wreck)’ personifies that kitchen-sink approach to pop bangers, kiddy choirs and all. Where The 1975 ‘legitimise’ (eurgh) their hooks with shoegazey passages and drum ‘n’ bass worship, Two Door just chuck another twenty synths and a packet of glitter all over everything in sight. ‘Gameshow’ is a warts ‘n’ all embracing of capital-P pop the kind which Two Door Cinema Club seemed desperate to keep at arms’ length before.

Things have, obviously, moved on – while Two Door were in the ether, The 1975 became the unstoppable behemoth of 80s-indebted guitar music they are today Foals leapfrogged Alex Trimble and co. Borne of depression, alcoholism, near implosion and hospitalisation – it’s hardly your typical popstar’s diary entry, but it’s from that rocky standing that Two Door Cinema Club stake their claim to return as indie-pop royalty. Few chart bothering records this year will emerge from a bleakness that could rival ‘Gameshow’’s.
