The Pigeon Detectives

Last night I went to see a new group I've been getting into lately called The Pigeon Detectives. Here's what Dominic Diamond said about them, someone who's usually spot on with his music:-"I usually make it my mission to tell you about the next big thing coming out of scotland musically, but today I feel honour boound to alert you to your next favourite band from south of the border. Like Kaiser Chiefs? Love Arctic Monkeys? Then make a considered attempt to involve yourself in the world of The Pigeon Detectives, who sound like a cross between those two bands. Short, simple guitar punk songs, with a brilliant lead guitarist and frontman who scissor-kicks off the drum riser, whirls his mic around his head then snogs a girl in the front row and gleefuly announces: "i got tongues!" All without missing a beat. They will be legendary."Well, they delivered all that and more. Possibly the best live lead singer i've seen from any group. Damn good voice, really enjoys himself, involves the audience, very energeting leaping around and dtuff and all as Dominc says, never missing a beat with it. I couldn't tell a difference between thier live sound and studio recordings. Every song was great and they played two new ones I haven't heard before. They were fucking awesome. These guys deserve to make it big this and if they don't, then something is wrong.Here's a few tracks for you.

The Hours

Brand new group, The Hours, I've liked every record so far and the album is no exception. Love this stuff, I've been waiting for the album for ages, now I finally have it. This will end up being my favourite album of 2007. I predicted it with Snow Patrol's at the start of last year and it was, I say the same with this album.
