Just this second listened to this album from start to finish ... wow! What a belter ... how have I not come across these guys before...? And why are they not bigger than they are ...? Looking forward to the new album and tour now.

Top band.

Working For A Nuclear Free City, can't recommend their Businessmen and Ghosts album enough, so much variety on it. Easily the best British band around at the moment IMO.

Glad people like them. Pushing this video on you because it's their best two songs, plus I put it together.

If you want some absolutely mentalist electronica (and who doesn't? ), then I suggest you check out Venetian Snares

He's incredibly prolific and releases about 2 albums a year!

Alexisonfire? a bit hardcore? Always thought the stuff I listened to verged on teen bedroom emo to be honest.

I'll look out for team sleep

[Ed209]

lol, i didn't know what music you was in to.

Team sleep any good?

[windy_miller]

I've heard of him. He's the one who did stuff with John Fruscianti isn't he? He didn't turn up to a bangface i went to. He is reknowned for being a prize c**t and not turning up to gigs. Interesting stuff though

This is f**king belting, if you like your music heavy, and/or you like Mike Patton's voice (why wouldnt you?)

The mini album is brilliant, although you can only get it via snail mail at the mo (I did get if from a dodgy site ) I'm buying it officially as soon as it goes live on itunes.

edited to add

It ISN'T Mike Patton, he just sounds a lot like him.

not too sure about that one fella, I dont really need to tell you what puts me off it do I?

just discovered these boys from leicester, I'm probably f**king miles behind the loop on this, but before today I had never heard them, I have since been on their bandcamp and bought everything they do, I even paid a fiver over what they were asking for their new album. I like it that much.

After seeing a few bullshit cynical gigs recently with people not bothering their arses, I’ve been listening with great admiration (and sadness for the current crop), to Jerry Lee Lewis Live at the Star Club Hamburg 1964. Been listening to it for a week straight now. Rock and roll doesn't get better.

Rolling Stone described it as "'Live At The Star Club, Hamburg is not an album, it's a crime scene".

He collapsed in the dressing room after the gig, as he did regularly around this time. He literally rocked until he dropped.

The Killer at his very best. Never been a performer like him in the history of modern music.

Turning to the drummer at 2.23: "Play that thang right boy".

His sneering and almost mocking of the crowd here chanting "JERRY JERRY" is hilarious. A nasty motherf**ker.
