you seen the next johnny foreigner yet?
i've seen
two fairly mediocre bands, one of which i bizarrely managed to catch on Newsround a few years ago.
certainly sounds like you've seen the new johnny foreigner
aye
i'm not that taken by them. Which i've heard is strange considering i like Los Campesinos! a great deal.
speaking of the road to v
you never hear much about The Brightlights do you? Plus when are the lovely Bombay Bicycle Club gonna bring an album out?
recently..
The brightlights were on the local news magazine round-up thingy ... and i can't recall them having a lot to say
Situationists
It is a lame competition, but there is a clear winner in the Situationists. Except they probably wont win because theyre actually good, just like Johnny Foreigner.
www.myspace.com/situationists in case you were wondering who...
yeah
they're the ones i saw. Not exactly bowled over really.
Really?
The sound was pretty shit actually, so maybe that didnt help? Loads of catchy songs that reveal hidden depths. It's not often you see a band directly influenced by American Football, Cap N Jazz et al get this far in such a commercially-orientated environment.
You listened to their myspace?
