What we say

Rating: happy This record left our BRIAN D feeling happy.

Another West Yorks act are The Sugars who are signed to Bad Sneakers. They've definitely got a good, full retro rock sound but there's a little too much Ocean Colour Scene/Weller in it for me, yet I reckon they're trying to get a bit of a Fifties rock and 60s garage/soul vibe to their tunes. Unfortunately the production is too modern and dulls the potential edge from 'Black Friday'. I think they'd like to be The Von Bondies (I love the feisty male/female vocal face-off but this all reminds the office of Do Me Bad Things. Then again if 3 people can sound like 9 then they must be 3 times more powerful? I like the flip 'Isle of Sirens' which is more of a Chris Isaak brooder with some nice echo-laden twanging and a powerful vocal. They're worth catching live too!

What the label says:

Three previous singles all made indie top ten sales chart.  
‘Black Friday’ is taken from the forthcoming album ‘The Curse Of The Sugars’, released in June. The album is produced by Will Jackson (Pigeon Detectives, Cribs).

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.
