Just listened to 'Fireworks' and 'Monmouth' by these guys and I'm quite liking them. Even more tappy, dancey, mathy music. Yay!

Erm....
I have the sinking feeling
I've missed something
You have, totally.
Thread the other day: "Haha, listen to this band, they ripped off foals completely. Yeah this band are crap, totally crap. This "mathyness" and shouting has been done to death by now."
Link?

Ahhh I see
I couldn't be arsed to look at that thread. I thought it was going to be another one of those Foals backlash yarns
deja vu
despite that other thread, i think they have potential. at the moment they wear their influences farrr too much on their sleeves. Monmouth=Foals, Fireworks=Minus The Bear, Maps=Maps And Atlases (why did they call it maps!?!?).
Yeah
They aren't great by any means, but I quite like these tracks
Hahahaa did you even see the thread the other day
Evidently not
I usually steer clear of the music board
I <3 Minus The Bear
I will look into when I'm not at work.
*into it
DiS faux pas alert!
ahahaha
fail
jesus
you non-southampton residents must have it sweet - Venice Ahoy are the best new band I have heard in the Southampton area since the latter part of 2006.
Got me quite excited; we can now book Safetyword with a band that sound vaguely like them.
