'Round' - XX Teens [Mute Records] Listen | Lyrics
XX Teens are five young men from London who have just finished their debut long-player, Welcome To Goon Island. The 12-track album, produced by Sheffield’s Ross Orton (MIA, Fat Truckers, Bromheads Jacket) is set to be released through Mute in late July.
'She Purred, While I Grred' - Wild Beasts [Domino Records] Listen | Lyrics
Now with an average age of twenty-one Wild Beasts started when they were just eighteen. The band deliberately sought to distance themselves from what they assumed was the norm. Shimmering and widescreen, 'Limbo, Panto', their debut album, is a confident record brimming with the band’s sense of purpose.
