"A wave of pure charm...f*cking awesome" – NME
"Complex, emotionally charged tuneage" - The Fly

After racking up a top 15 hit with first single ‘After Hours’ and still riding high on the chart success of second album Brain Thrust Mastery, which stormed into the UK album charts at Number 11 (a position the band insists upon referring to as "a baker's Top Ten"), We Are Scientists were ready to hang up their hats, telling anyone who would listen that they were now "officially as big as Madonna," and that their only future professional plans were to "retire to Monaco and start a tiger-breeding farm." After several stern lectures from their management and a threat from the heads of EMI to smash up their new sports cars, the duo reconsidered, agreeing to release B.T.M's second single, "Chick Lit," on June 9th.

Knowing how much people like to dance, and how good 10% of people are at it, We Are Scientists got Chick Lit remixed, not five times, not four times, not three times, not twice, but-- oh yeah, twice! Remix number one comes from Matt Helders (Arctic Monkeys), an expert video-gamer who earns his living trying to find secret levels in all the original Game Boy games. Remix number two comes from Danger, a Tube train salesman who can get his hands on pretty much whatever you want in terms of Tube trains.

Also - one 7" is red and one is white!  And the gatefold pack has a sidecar slot for the other 7"!

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.
