So, we're Back! Took a break for Jan as it's rubbish.
To kick off 08 for us we have;
1990s
Take two guys from
The Yummy Fur (the other two went
off to form
Franz Ferdinand), one from
V-Twin, some guitars, a kit, a bass, a lot of alcohol, a whole load of poppers and leave them in a room.
The result? 1990s! Sign them to
Rough Trade (probably one of the coolest label ever). Get them to create the ace
Cookies album full of indie, pop rock goodness
(
voted as one of the top 25 albums in 2007 by Rolling Stone),
tour the world, become famous and then play in Aberdeen for ACTH - Simple!
ERRORS
2008 is going to be a great year for this lot.
Having finished off 07 supporting
Underworld on their full UK tour,
they're now Putting the finishing touches to their much anticipated debut album!
Expected later this year on
Mogwais uber cool
Rock Action Records.Their music is a kind of mash up of elements
from new-wave, electro, 90's rave, glitch electronica and
acid-house and, in the words of
The Guardian, they create
"something Pretty damn special and slightly mental".
