They’re back, minus one member. Bardot’s follow-up to their debut CD is as flat as a skunk run over by a steamroller, however. In fact, they sound like Spice Girls would after ten helium tanks too many.

Apart from the slightly amusing girlfriend/boyfriend’s-mommy spat in ASAP, everything else on Play It Like That is pretty standard pop music. Unfortunately, the singing is so uninspired and uninteresting that Bardot makes Alvin and the Chipmunks look like three Macy Grays.

Looks like another Popstars winner can’t outlive its fifteen minutes of fame. Bye, girls, and the next time we meet, I’ll have fries with that, thanks!
