glennbuchan Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Hey hey,What's everyone thinking of the new Xcerts tune- Just Go Home?It's available to listen to on their myspace: www.myspace.com/thexcertsIt's going to their third single release and will be on sale soon i think.Another thing I was going to ask was that I've heard a lot of people in Aberdeen have been putting them down and criticising them for not being an Aberdeen band anymore 8o. I've heard people think they have turned their backs on their hometown.What's peoples views on this and what do people think of the now Brighton based 3 piece?x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Savant Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 For a Brighton band, they play Aberdeen an awful lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 The new single is ok, not my fav compared to older stuff but still a good song.As for the rest of the pish, WHO CARES!!! Yes they are from aberdeen and now live in brighton, so what, why does it matter if they are considered an aberdeen band or not, i would think the reason they play here a lot is because they are from here and still have a large following here.

Swingin' Ryan Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 Brilliant song, brilliant band and lovely gentlemen aswell. They should and will be huge IMO.And of course they are still an Aberdeen band, they might not live in the city but how many that don't come from somewhere like London or New York spend their entire careers living in the city they were born in?

666 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 thanks for pointing that out...i didnt realise they had a new song!mmh, i do quite like it.their newer stuff is good in that it's more easily accessible. you could almost consider them power pop!any band that has the chance to "break out" of aberdeen should go for it.

Paulscoconutass Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Pretty good songs, not too big on the deliberately emphasised scottish accent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennbuchan Posted July 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 I thought they lived in Exeter?"Having grown too big for their hometown of Aberdeen , impossibly young Scottish three-piece THE XCERTS relocated to the other end of the UK last year and found themselves in sunny Brighton."Says on their myspace Exeter, but last I heard was Brighton.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingin' Ryan Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 The drummer Tom comes from Exeter and Murray and Jo come from Aberdeen, but they all now live in Brighton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
