Since the A&R furore surrounding their discovery kicked off, and the low key release of their debut single last July, Glasgow 6 piece Make Model have been quietly, but resolutely, setting themselves up as one of the most promising UK acts of 2008. Having spent the past six months hard at work in the studio getting to grips with their collective talents, crafting raw demos into an arsenal of pop thunderstorms, future success, nay greatness seems eerily ripe for the picking. The first single proper to be lifted from their debut long player, ‘The LSB’ is released on April 21st.

Originally released as a limited 7” last summer, the track was mixed by celebrated NYC producer Rich Costey this time around (who has worked with Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Muse, Rage Against The Machine and The Mars Volta amongst many others). A technically significant choice, very well made - sonically, ‘The LSB’ is an aggressive pop gleamer. Charged with thumping, Flaming Lips-esque flair and raised on a diet of limited edition LCD Soundsystem, Stereolab, and Kompakt records…it’s somehow ended up as the most ludicrously catchy art school indie to have come out of Glasgow since Franz Ferdinand. The press seem to agree...
