Sure “New Rave” was a nice distraction to get kids back on the dance floor, but can you really picture any of these bands making great second or third album?
The sad fact is that proper rock and roll is still lying under the Libertines’ shadow years after people should have moved on. Hell, Babyshambles don’t even sound like his former band.
Step up four lads with vastly different musical backgrounds who still understand the most important thing. Make sure there is a melody. With a tune you can hum firmly worked out they proceed to skuzz it up.
It’s not about the haircuts, the make of guitar they play or about posing to the groupies in the front row.
We are the Douglas Furs and we’d like one chance to make you think… and dance.
Sorry about last night, gutted I missed your set, good talking to you lads again. I've just read that review of last night and listened to the songs. The one I was on about last night was 'Russia'.
