Despite its dubstep-tinged bass, \"Get a Job,\" a pointed indictment of a poor little rich girl, could have easily appeared on an earlier Gossip album with a more lo-fi approach, and the stand-out \"Horns\" is an \"On the Playground\"-style takedown fueled by menacing strings and wah-wah riffs.\r\n","brand":"Hit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56242534613377,"sku":"88691982652","price":6.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9050\/5986\/files\/2454342.jpg?v=1789033470","url":"https:\/\/hit.co.uk\/products\/gossip-joyful-noise-music-cd","provider":"Hit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
