Fucking obsessed with this album. True, bits are a bit samey, what with the ultra minimal stripped back style they employ, the harmonies are lush and the dinky guitar lines are so emotive, can't get these simple, smoky, mellow tunes out of my head. At last, a true marriage of soul & indie that doesn't make you balk at the idea. The sleeves are a shit to file away without ripping them though. Stupid design....We calculate your shipping costs by taking the heaviest item in your order and calculating that at the 'Heaviest Item' price.

showing a maturity beyond their years (they seriously look like the sort of yoof that would usually be hurling chips around the local shopping centre) and making some beautifully clean and clear cut music - full of soul and feeling and emotion, reminiscent of portishead or slow tricky and massive attack tunes but with an indie pop edge and ear, this band are destined for greatness based on the evidence of this debut. capturing and seting a mood with Intro before they let you bobble through with them.
the only issue with the album is that a couple of times i wondered if i was hearing the same song again - so it does in places lack a bit of distinction but it is all good. and a new and interesting sound and approach - that has wowed the festivals this summer of 2009! holding an entire audience captive and holding their breath and what is being produced in front of them is quite a sight to behold!and yes - there are X's everywhere! Rating: 5 out of 5...according to Stuart.
this just grabs you immediately from the moment Intro comes in. I put this on and walked away from the hi-fi and had to spin around in amazement as the dreamy music warmed a cold evening up. Unlike anything you've really heard - but put together with so many things that you will have heard before.electro-pop with interesting noises filling the gaps. classic two vocal play-off between male and female lead - with some great bass lines resonating throughout. quite rightly the best album of 2009 in everyone's list (well apart from Norman Towers) as it was just fresh and new - and created by 4 kids from SE London who look like they should have ASBO's not their fingers on a musical pulse that is pumping loud and clear. also - while not on the album - one of the most amazing cover versions (certainly of recent times) as they take Womack and Womack's 'Teardrops' apart and re-create in the most stunning manner that it will take you a couple of minutes to work out what it is.
