On third album ‘Boys These Days’, Britain’s silliest guitar band Sports Team return with newfound ‘60s pop sensibilities, while their sardonic lyrical tightrope takes a (slightly) more serious tone. “I’ve just had a baby!” blurts out Alex Rice, just seconds after he’s entered the pub, successfully sending DIY’s jaw crashing to the floor.
