Right, these kidders are top shit. The band consists of three brothers from Leeds, they're an indie/rock/powerpop band with crazy guitar riffs and sound too catchy to be true. I've seen them doing a gig in a small and dingy room when they were just a support band and they triumphed over the focal bands. Going to see them again in a week in Newcastle, which I imagine to be a fucking good time. After two album releases I can honestly say there are only three songs I'm not too keen on. I just wanted to spread the word on these chaps as they're not wholly mainstream in Britan, nevermind America. Anyway, I'll put a set list of songs off both albums and please, give them a listen, and if you already are, comment!

First Album (The Cribs)

The Watch Trick
You Were Always The One (vital listening)
The Lights Went Out
You & I
Things You Should Be Knowing (vital listening)
Another Number
What About Me
Learning How To Fight
Tri'elle
Baby Don't Sweat (vital listening)
Direction
Third Outing

Second Album (The New Fellas)

Hey Scenesters!
I'm Alright, Me (vital listening)
Martell (vital listening)
Mirror Kisses (vital listening)
We Can No Longer Cheat You (vital listening)
It Was Only Love
The New Fellas
Hello? Oh...
The Wrong Way To Be (vital listening)
Haunted
Things Aren't Going To Change

AND a new release (only available on single) - YOU'RE GONNA LOSE US...great stuff

I downloaded the second album a few weeks ago.


Typical british band. They're good, i'd probably catch them live, but no one will give half a shit about them in a year and a half.
