Watch: These New Puritans perform 'We Want War' at Maida Vale
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater April 13th, 2010

The BBC do and have done a many great wonderful things. All those nature documentaries, Newsnight, Match Of The Day, 15 Storeys High etc. Now they've started filming and posting videos of the variety of interesting artists who perform live for them, including Essex's finest (TM) These New Puritans, who waltzed over to Maida Vale studios to perform for/on Rob Da Bank's Radio 1 show.

Have a look 'n' listen to them doing 'We Want War', their current single. You'll see that the video's around eight minutes long. That is mainly because it takes six minutes for the sequencer (it is a sequencer, right?) to be sorted out.

The video (or at least the embeddability function) unfortunately expires after FIVE days, though. So if you're reading this AFTER the expiration date, then you're better off visiting the proper website to view it. We are not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
