Remember Shoegaze?

Me neither. But apparently it's back. Thanks to THE BIG PINK, and their My Bloody Valentine noisewalls and driving, forceful basslines.

But its in the wonkily pop arrangements that they really shine, sounding like a twisted boyband with a broken drum machine and an odd obsession with Elvis. And I really like it. Something really isn't adding up here.

Either way, "Velvet" is an absolutely sodding tune that I've got stuck on repeat, and they are definately worth checking out, currently set to play T In The Park, Reading and Leeds Festivals, Bestival, and annoyingly, my old stomping ground of Portsmouth, at the Wedgewood Rooms, which was not only an awesome venue, but a five minute walk from my house. Bastards.
