What we say

Rating: unmoved This record left our Ant feeling unmoved.

Time for a 7" then from NEAT PEOPLE. 'I've Played Baby I'm Bored' about three times now. I was gonna be a smart arse and say somthing like "Yeah it does exactly what it does on the packet, baby I'm bored" Although I'm not quivering with excitement this is rather catchy and as far as these debut indie singles go and it's fairly competent.. It doesn't make me want to take off all my clothes and do a bullet dive into a red hot vat of cheap stinking chip oil at all which is always my fear with these kind of singles. Reminds Phil of the Futureheads in places. On new label Rekabet. Just noticed we have it on jam proof CD format too. Also on the label is a 5 track EP by SIMON MASTRANTONE. 'And The First Noise' is slightly jerky, quirky,singer songwriter, brit guitar indie of the the Jeremy Warmsley variety. Where's Maggie when you need her...

What the label says:

Hailing from the squaddie-infested Essex town of Colchester and nearby Chelmsford, NeatPeople have arrived just in time to stop pop from becoming a dirty word. With shades of Dexys, XTC, Talking Heads and fellow townsmen Blur, NeatPeople strike a blow against the homogeneity of the charts and the carbon copy posturing of too-cool-for-school indie boys. All in their early twenties, the band met variously at music college, while serving popcorn and cleaning toilets, and played their first gig two years ago at Chelmsfords Army & Navy, a venue which now trades as a sports bar a fitting analogy for the generic diet of rubbish NeatPeople are determined to stamp out: "We want to make music that people can scratch the surface of and find something other than shit beneath their fingernails." Putting their training days in the obligatory dodgy metal and covers bands behind them, NeatPeople are steaming ahead in their pursuit of the perfect pop sound. Singer Gary is chief songwriter, providing the backbone of tunes that are then thrashed out in a unit on a Colchester industrial estate, the band battling fumes from the car re-sprayers next door. A very English sound emerges, influenced by the remarkable in the mundane, by motorways and aeroplanes and friends and boredom and trees and computers and sheds. The sound of the suburbs indeed. Ambitious, charming, pretension-free and with a dash of beguiling innocence, your sister will want to shag them; your mum will want to have them round for tea. And no doubt soon the whole family will be buying their records.
