HOOKERS GREEN NO.1 ELECTRIC TIBET THE A FOREST THE TUNNELS, THIS FRIDAY 3rd JUNE some words on the hookers green no.1 album: 'Provincial Scotland has its secrets, which should be cherished. This new album by a group of hidden teenagers takes orch-pop and drops it off in another universe. If Pavement took indie-rock to venus, Hookers Green is happy to exist in the gamma quadrant. There is a history of pop here, Stax horns, fracture gospel, Spiritualized's faith, Pet Sounds and Wayne Coynes metaphysics. All put together as if bubbling out from another solar system. Imagine listening intently on headphones and the signal is constantly interrupted by the ten greatest things you want to hear, competing for attention. Random and cohesive. Split open and beautiful.' Art Rocker Magazine 'Odd electro beats tumble into Pavement and punky jazz.' 4 out of 5, Rip and Burn Magazine 'Like Radiohead, The Flaming Lips and Mogwai experimenting with free jazz and Dntel-esque beats, and lets face it you cant get a better accolade than that! Hookers Green No. 1s debut album is a slice of experimental greatness.' 4 and a half out of 5, Gigwise.com 'Close yr eyes & envisage a decapitated Kate Bush backed by an armless string quartet (whove left their conductor on the bus) - & yre still some distance from achieving the maximum pretension levels required to make music of such mind-numbing tediosity' - trakmarx 'punk' magazine

hey not intentionally trying to ruin this board but we only recently realised that the button on the hookersgreen.com website which subscribes people wasnt working. so, if anyone did try and sign up (not saying that anyone actually did!) then could you please add your name again? sorry! hookers green no.1
