called red cars go faster, who are pretty decent

Very good, original too, although when I seen them at Summer Sundae, they're were very moody, didnt have the best stage presence and one of their songs chorses sounded to me to feature the words 'Washing powder'.

But apart from that pretty good.

Drummer was alright and so was the bassist. The singer didnt look towards the crowd and one of the guitarists payed the most attention to his beloved guitar. The keyboardist was alright however.

 

[footyguts]

the single is out this week "sexy in latin"

 

[highland fox]

Heard these the other day,sound like The Artic Monkeys to me

 

[Hazzman]

They're are similar but not a patch on them in terms of quality. Decent, nothing more or less.

 

[footyguts]

better than the monkeys live

[Orifice]

The LP 'About What You Know' out today (Jan 29th)

The singles are all on it (as ever) and the whole lot is excellent

I'm listening to it now and am gonna see them next month.
Great stuff, especially if you like them.

 

[Hazzman]

A review in Guardian compared them to Half Man Half Biscuit. Certainly a great tribute.

Fantastic:icon_lol:

I can see the likeness at times it's true. I'll be listening to them now in a new light.

A review in Guardian compared them to Half Man Half Biscuit.

What did it say - "Compared to Half Man Half Biscuit, these are crap" ?

 

[Hazzman]

''But the deft humour takes an unfunny turn when singer Jon Windle opens his mouth and, thanks to his sardonic, deadpan delivery, stirs memories of early 90s indie clowns Half Man Half Biscuit. Maybe it's something he'll grow out of, along with judging a girl by her Wonderbra.''

My mate says he would not mind this band if their lyrics was just poetry, the music someone taints the songwriter's talent.
