'The Great Awakening' is the new EP from THE EARLY YEARS on Beggars Banquet (mmmmmmmm Banquet!!! Drool) Now all I can think about is food. I'm gonna have to dine soon before I eat my own head off. As I'm a believer in deferred gratification I'll tell you about this 4 track CD and first though. 'Say What I want Want To' is very The Smiths sounding. 'On Fire' has a super weak mega puny tinny sounding drum machine beat under some piano with a female vocal. 'Autumn Song' has a krautrock sounding beat with miserable Radiohead style vocals. Finally 'A Little More (Version II)' is a dreamy instrumental piece. The 12" I'm reliably informed will be here soon. Now where's my dinner!!!The Early Years have been on the radar for a while but are still relative newcomers on the scene. Having signed to Beggars Banquet early last year, they wasted no time in putting out two limited singles and an outstanding self-titled debut album, which Drowned in Sound praised for its “noisy majesty”, NME labelled “an explosion of unbridled sonic pleasure” and Artrocker decreed to be most definitely “the right side of prog.”·The Early Years sneak into the new year with the EP release of ‘The Great Awakening’, consisting of four brand new tracks including ‘Say What I Want To’, which started to feature in the band’s live set towards the end of 2006.
