Labels: Parlophone
Review by: Martin Brown
The sleeve presents four men who look like The Strokes, only uglier. The CD presents four men sounding like The Strokes, only not as good. My friend saw these guys supporting Idlewild. He was accosted by a random in the crowd:
Random: ‘They were great!’
My friend: ‘No, they were shit’
Random: ‘No they weren’t! The guitarist had really nice shoes!’
I think that says it all. Fancy it? They’re on Capitol, so you’ll hear them soon. I can imagine this being the type of thing the kids’ll lap up and dance drunkenly to at trendy ‘indie’ clubs. Boring boring boring.
