OVERVIEW: ‘Death To The Indie Disco’ is typical of Blah Blah Blah’s satirical storytelling; not attacking indie specifically, but rather a preoccupation with fashion and appearance. Combining the ethos of punk with pure pop hooks, Blah Blah Blah claim to be more influenced by Monty Python or Noel Coward than any musical act. Hailing from the London/Essex borders at the far end of the Central Line, Blah Blah Blah were originally formed as a trio in 2005. The departure of their original drummer left Jay and Chris (bass, vocals) gigging as a duo and busking outside London venues, before being joined by new drummer Tom. Their policy of never turning down a gig led to them playing over 300 shows in 2007, including two wakes, two weddings, and a 60th birthday party. They still found time between such engagements to support Kate Nash, Frank Turner, and The Holloways on tour plus dates with The Twang and Chas & Dave, as well as keeping up the busking; they were ejected from the Wireless Festival for putting on an impromptu performance with the aid of a megaphone nicked from security. Having already handed out countless thousands of handwritten CDs at countless hundreds of gigs, ‘Death To The Indie Disco’ is just the latest chapter of Blah Blah Blah’s mission is to spread the word by any means possible.

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.

'Seriously, it was an Abba carrier bag.'
