EP Review: TheLogBook.com

Catchy music seems to be a family affair among the members of New Zealand's Finn clan, as this 
EP featuring Liam Finn - son of Crowded House frontman Neil Finn - demonstrates.
Boasting only half a dozen songs, the self-titled betchadupa CD puts to rest any comparison between 
this group's young members and let's say, for example, Hanson. And to say that the production style shows
 a little bit of influence from Liam's dad's latest solo album would be an understatement.
The better tunes include the lively Derelict (which sounds - production-wise, thought not musically, a
 little like Souvenir), the bouncy Empty Head, and the slow, Beatlesque Spill the Light. This latter track
 demonstrates that Liam has picked up quite a few of his father's stylistic licks.
The production is a little rough in places, but it's important to remember that betchadupa's freshman 
effort is basically a demo which has gotten more attention than most demos thanks to one if
 its members family connections. This shows that potential that betchadupa could have.
And from the sound of this release, they have a lot of potential.
