What we say

Rating: unmoved This record left our Phil feeling unmoved.

Brian and me have had many a heated word about the Long Blondes over the last year or so. He thinks they're all edgey whilst keeping that pop sensibilty... whilst I think they sound just like Sleeper and encompass that britpop sound from the mid 90's. This new single on Rough Trade called Weekend Without Makeup proves me right and the chorus even has a faint whiff of Echobelly. Seriously. Mind you we sell about 10 squillion of every release by this band.... why the same folks don't buy Sleeper and Echobelly is a mystery to me... This is great catchy indie pop which does nothing for me whatsoever but if I liked this sort of thing I'd be throwing myself all over the place like a proper dick. On 2 x 7" and CD......

About the humble CD single:

Another digital format and even though they can hold 80 minutes of information (like a CD album would) record companies only fill up a small portion of the disc. Sometimes only 1 or 2 tracks on there totalling 5 minutes or so. It's like going to a restaurant and getting a plate of food with 2 green beans on and wondering where the rest of your meal is. Sometimes they're lovingly packaged though and when the music is good then you're into a winner. Also you get videos on there sometimes which you can watch on your computer. That is excellent.
