This week's fantastic Single of the Week is that of brand new Austrian alternative trio, Kids N Cats. "Tip Tip" is their debut single and already they're proving to be a really interesting group!
The only thing that really tops the song is the music video itself. The music video is full of crazy visuals involving coloured beards, slimy toys and an ass covered in googley eyes! It's definitely worth a watch!
