What we say

Rating: unmoved This record left our Mingus Rude feeling unmoved.

Bombay Bicycle Club: 'How We Are' (MMM) Four track 7" EP sung with a strange kinda quivering voice,backed by highly strung jangly guitars, stop-start dynamics and theatrical breakdowns.Some Pavement, Sammy and Grifters (of early nineties American College boy indie fame) comparisons are piped up at the towers. There's also a CD available, released on their own imprint.

What the label says:

THOUGH CURRENTLY UNSIGNED THEY ARE ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING NEW BANDS IN THE COUNTRY. HAVING BEATEN 4000 OTHER HOPEFULS TO WIN THE ‘ROAD TO V’ COMPETITION IN 2006 AND A COVETED SLOT AT THAT YEAR’S V FESTIVAL, THEY HAVE JUST PLAYED SETS TO PACKED CARLING TENTS AT THE READING AND LEEDS FESTIVALS, EARNING THEMSELVES A ’10 TO WATCH OUT FOR’ LISTING IN NME
“MUSIC SO PRECOCIOUSLY INTELLIGENT AND ARTFUL THAT IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN BEAMED DOWN FROM ANOTHER PLANET”  NME
“IMPOSSIBLY YOUNG AND IMPOSSIBLY TALENTED”  THE FLY
IT IS EARLY DAYS FOR BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB, BUT ON THE BASIS OF THIS EP THEIR POTENTIAL IS EXTRAORDINARY.
THE EP IS RELEASED ON THE BAND’S OWN LABEL MMM… RECORDS (VIA NETTWERK) AND PRODUCED BY JIM ABBISS (ARCTIC MONKEYS, KASABIAN, ETC).

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.
