Following on from previous single Sluts Who Stole Our Palm Tree, Going Swimming garnish their beta-male misogyny with a façade of ironic-retro-alpha-machismo in She Hates Sports – a turgid shart of paint-by-numbers garage riffs and a fuckheaded vocal delivery that has the decency to conceal lyrics like “She don’t really care about the bands that I know or the clothes that I wear” with what sounds like an impression of Bobcat Goldthwait. This is the worst shit, and bottom feeder cunts like Going Swimming are everything that’s wrong with Australian music in 2013.
