Perfect for summer, the decidedly British twee-ness of it all is part of the charm.

On We Are the Pipettes the band's synchronized winks and nods and finger waggles to patriarchal 60s girl-group music are not so much retro as they are post-retro, the product of an age in which progression in pop music has all but been replaced by cultivation and fusion.

Some bands are born brilliant. Some bands achieve brilliance. Some bands have brilliance thrust upon them. And then, some bands are The Pipettes.

We Are The Pipettes' is a giddy 33-minute sprint through a fabulous flurry of doo-wops, handclaps and sha-la-la-ing.

We Are The Pipettes is possibly the only pure-pop record you need own this year: fourteen tracks in total, each and every one a potential single.

A Shangri Las-inspired power-pop of tooth-rotting sweetness over hip hop and northern soul.

Thanks to their steely girl-gang mentality and a killer understanding of Spectoresque pop and kohl-eyed punk, the Pipettes have produced a noble offshoot of their city's Riot Grrl heritage.

The early lyric "Give us your soul and we'll can it" kinda sums this album up. It's so cynical it makes Lily Allen sound like Edith Piaf.
