Last Friday I witnessed something novel almost unseen these days. It was February’s Dirty Bingo and the shackles of trend were off. On the bill were Colours, Sex Beet and Fair Ohs. Colours took to the stage. Fresh from their support slot with hotly tipped US band Real Estate.
With only three years until we hit those troublesome teens it seems the naughties flew by in the blink of any eye yet a hell of a lot happened. Our jeans got tighter than the economy, we saw the slow death of “Indie” music and the emergency of something far more exciting and fresh.
Crocodiles are lo-fi new wave, featuring former members of The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower. We caught up with them on their 2009 UK tour, playing live at The Victoria, Mile End, London
Not Cool are a ‘gutter pop’ band born in the winter of 2008, semi-fresh from the sweet icebergs that were Lost Penguin and The Violets. These young twentysomething wanderers count severely divided genres as their influences. BeatCast caught up with them supporting Crocodiles at The Victoria, London
