What we say

Rating: unmoved This record left our Ant feeling unmoved.

Weekender Records have chirpy single out by Kingsize who are a London band that make us think of a less shambolic Libertines. It's fairly commercial indie rock . I struggled with words to write about this so Phil told me to write ' if you like this kind of thing you'll be singing it on the way back from the pub while you're clubbing peoples faces off.' Incidentally here's a link worth checking where a band member of The Disciplines (also on Weekender) chose to attack my character which we all found highly amusing.

What the label says:

 Kingsize          London based good time rock 'n' rollers and recent stars of Club OMH Kingsize are a hybrid of the best parts of your record collection.Mixing the urgency and grit of modern collectives like The Libertines and Razorlight with the pop sensibilities of bands of yesteryear like The Kinks, The Beatles and The Clash, they create a hugely raw, rocking and tuneful noise that's just waiting to soundtrack your lives.
        
THIS IS THE BANDS SECOND SINGLE, WITH THE FIRST VERY NEAR TO SELLING OUT. A VERY YOUNG BAND BASED OUT OF LONDON, THEY HAVE PLAYED THE SMALLER LONDON VENUES HEAVILY TO BUILD A LOYAL FANBASE. STEVE HARRIS (XFM MUSIC RESPONSE) TIPPED THEM AS HIS BREAKTHROUGH ACT OF 2007

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
