The fall out...
07 May 2010
We've had some damn fine reviews of the single since its release last month:
"The band’s debut single, Hey, was released two weeks ago and is a beautiful crystallization of everything that was right with music in the mid 1980s." - One Track Mind
"Refreshing, honest, danceable indie frolics." - Red Hot Velvet
and a great review from The Fly for our single launch show at Death Disco:
"Imagine a self-harming Chris Isaac necking a bottle of absinthe singing ‘Wicked Game’. Great stuff!" - The Fly
In addition we've also been doing rather well with our European friends:
Going to number 2 in the Czech club charts, 22 in the Dutch download chart and loitering in the top 5 of the Serbian indie chart.
You can still get your hand on it from Itunes and Amazon.
We're also curating our own club night at Ginglik in Shepherds Bush on June 3 which promises to be an awesome occasion. More info as get it.
Single release date announced and party show set
17 March 2010
Our debut single 'Hey/Curtain Call' will be released on April 12 and will be available from all digital outlets. (Itunes/Amazon etc).
Produced by Dmitri Tikovoi (Placebo,The Horrors, John Cale). It has invariably described as :
"Like if you put Robert Smith in a blender with an overclocked metronome"
"It's rhythmic, a little bit broody and introspective"
and "by far my favourite tune of 2010"
To celebrate we'll be playing one of our favourite nights in London at Alan McGee's Death Disco in the Notting Hill Arts Club. Full details on the show page. Be great to have your support on the night, plus its free entry.
