What the label says:

Bravado and bluster, swagger and style and an impeccable sense of timing…can’t get it out of your mind” Drowned In Sound. O Fracas return with the limited edition Factfinding EP (500 10” Vinyl and digital download) featuring two tracks from their forthcoming debut album, Fits & Starts, due early next year.  The band recently signed to I Can Count in the UK and Vinyl Junkie in Japan and this release follows the release of two critically acclaimed singles on Marquis Cha Cha. This EP comprises of two lead tracks Factinding and And So A Scratch Runs Down A Wall, taken from Fits & Starts.  Along with Moth To A Flame and a remix of Scratched Wall by Leeds’s up and coming Hip Hop export Breaking The Illusion. O Fracas are the collision of a myriad of influences.  Inspired as much by the DC hardcore of Fugazi and Q And Not U along with the rhythms of Billy Cobham and Fela Kuti, they bring this together with the range of Talking Heads songbook and condense it into three minutes pop songs played with a vigour and taut musicianship beyond many of their peers.  Lyrically, lead singer Ben writes about the human condition with the insight of a man twice his age, O Fracas set themselves apart from the pack and with an average age of just twenty this really is surely just the beginning for O Fracas.Tracks:Factfinding,  And So A Scratch Runs Down A Wall,  Moth To A Flame,  Scratched Wall (BTI Mix) Press : Features in:Artrocker (Interview - Dec), The Fly - Ones To Watch, Reviews in Leeds Guide, Sandman, Artrocker.

About the humble 10":

The 10" sits somewhere in between the 7" and 10" (kind of like a wierd cousin). This awkward variant exists for no other reason aside from to be different from it's other family members. It can provide less music than a 12" but more than a 7". It's almost like a budget 12" or a posh 7". Either way it's wierd and it needs sorting out. Maybe it's quirkyness has helped it carry on defying all rules and convention? Importantly though it plays at a multitude of speeds so it is still quintessentially a total bargain (albeit a total freak of a bargain).
