- Wimps have occupied one of my favourite spaces in punk: one where any pretension or holier-than-thou mentality is left on a coat rack outside and on the inside hilarious and oddball songs replace a constant onslaught of politics. I’m not saying that sort of thing isn't warranted, lord knows, but songs that find the funny side of the most mundane or kooky stuff a band wants to conjure up can be the most refreshing anditote to all of life's seriousness.
