What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Brian feeling happy.

The Maccabees from sunny Brighton have a single out on the normally tedious Fierce Panda. 'Latchmere' is a frisky blast of rather plagiaristic Steve Lamacq sponsored indie. A drop of Futureheads in there for definite with a generous soupcon of every other modern day energetic bunch of guitar wielding hopefuls. It's got the whoo-hoo adlibs in the chorus, buzzsaw guitar, twin pronged colliding vocal harmonies. Every page of the modern indie pop tune manual is ripped from it's moorings & pored over in the toilet. What sets this tune apart is that a/ the drumming is superb & really carries across the song's sheer exuberance & b/ It's about a leisure centre which surely wins them kudos. The B-sides sound like every other band at the moment, predictably, but they're a significant cut above the mountains of desperate dross posing around at the moment. It's all about the energy here!. 7"/CDs & presumably ltd as feck

About the humble CD single:

Another digital format and even though they can hold 80 minutes of information (like a CD album would) record companies only fill up a small portion of the disc. Sometimes only 1 or 2 tracks on there totalling 5 minutes or so. It's like going to a restaurant and getting a plate of food with 2 green beans on and wondering where the rest of your meal is. Sometimes they're lovingly packaged though and when the music is good then you're into a winner. Also you get videos on there sometimes which you can watch on your computer. That is excellent.
