KUBICHECK are marginally more exciting with new single 'Outwards'. I can imagine seeing this on TV at 1:00 in the morning on channel 4 recorded live at a summer festival sponsored by a mobile phone company. With likes of The Killers, The Bravery, Razorlight etc. A definite commercial appeal here although to my knowledge they're not as successful as I reckon they could be. Yawn. 7" and enhanced CD with different B-side on 30:30 Recordings.KUBICHEK! ARE FAST RISING FROM THE NEWCASTLE MUSIC SCENE AS ONE OF THE BEST UP AND COMING BANDS ON THE INDIE/ ROCK CIRCUIT. TAKING INFLUENCES FROM THE LIKES OF JOY DIVISION, IDLEWILD, MOGWAI, AND Q AND NOT YOU, THEY FIND THE HAPPY MEDIUM BETWEEN FAST, ENERGETIC INDIE/ROCK AND DREAMY/EPIC INDIE. CONSISTING OF 4 BAND MEMBERS IN ALAN MCDONALD (VOCALS/GUITAR), CHRIS MCGREEVY (DRUMS), MARK NELSON (LEAD GUITAR), AND MICHAEL COBURN (BASS) THE BAND RELEASE THEIR NEW SINGLE ‘OUTWARDS’ ON NEW INDIE LABEL 30:30 RECORDINGS ON DECEMBER 4TH. THE SINGLE WILL BE RELEASED ON 7” VINYL BACKED WITH UNRELEASED NEW B-SIDE IN ‘BARRIERS,’ AND ENHANCED CD FEATURING ‘OUTWARDS, AND NEW UNRELEASED B-SIDES IN ‘A DEAD END’, & ‘ACK.’ WITH THEIR DEBUT ALBUM ‘NOT ENOUGH NIGHT’, PRODUCED BY DAVE ERINGA (IDLEWILD, ASH, ETC) & SET FOR A RELEASE IN MARCH 2007, THE NEW YEAR LOOKS SET TO BE ROSY FOR THE QUARTET.
