I have to admit I've never heard of Swiss indie darlings Chin-Chin, but am very happy to finally here this Ep from 1986.
The a-side Stop! Your Crying as an urgent rush of jangly guitars and full of echo and reverb as they tell you to Stop! Your Crying it makes no sense like they are talking to a little child, but with some insistence this is in a similar vein to Tallulah Gosh or The Marine Girls as they leave the loser of a boyfriend whose weeping and wailing for them.
The B-side opens with Revolution that has a 50's soda shop pop song gone jangle pop with a great parping sax part and cool girl group harmony backing vocals as they sing of the girl powered revolution they want to happen.

The final song on the EP is Cry In Vain a super speedy jangle monster full of salient advice for the men who approach them this is super spiky with some splenetic guitar as the frantic vocals scream at you hopefully not in vain.
