Heartbreak songs usually arrive wearing black and carrying a handkerchief. Exzenya's "B!tch Please" turns up in good heels, pours itself a drink and lets the cheating husband's mistress know, with a raised eyebrow, that she has been paid a favour. The song is a divorce lawyer's nightmare and a jukebox's dream.

Seattle has never lacked for rain, and The Night and The Dirty have bottled it. "Reflections" sounds like a downpour on a Pacific Northwest window at dusk, the kind that blurs the streetlights into smears of amber and sends a person back through the drawers of their own past. The band call their sound "Surf Drench", and for once the press release is on to something. It's surf music after the beach has emptied, the tide gone out, the sky the colour of wet slate and the only company a guitar still dripping from the sea.
