Hull four-piece THE NEAT are a young punk band boasting influences such as The Fall, Fire Engines and the Clash. Their music is characterised by repetition, scratchy guitars, pace and Mark E Smith esque vocals - pretty much The Fall with a sharper image.

"Latter day Fall jostling with the XX Teens; the drums pound along mercilessly, while the sinewy guitar sounds like it's been exhumed from 1979 and the dry staccato vocals stab mantras through the flailing body. Neat Neat Neat" - Steve Lamacq

''The Neat are one of the most exciting live bands in the UK. Capturing the essence of early Joy Division with the aggression and confidence of Public Image Ltd. or Gang of Four'' Subba Cultcha.com

"Its as snotty-as-a hooter-in-a-gale-force-wind agit post-punk by emaciated speed freaks" NME
