Everything they've released so far is top notch IMO, and this video for "Your Drums, Your Love" is certainly no exception. Surely, they deserve their own thread?

You Know You Like It is still my favorite of the tracks they've released, but yeah...they don't have a single clunker yet.

Only have 'Put Up Your Hands' by them so far after a mate recommended. Really enjoying that one, pleasantly poppy chorus. Keep meaning to check out the 'You Know You Like It' e.p. on spotify but haven't made any time for it yet. Definitely worth pursuing then?

more perfection IMO

Album release party of the to date untitled debut scheduled for 20 June 2013 at the Electric Brixton.
As a latecomer, my favorite so far is the 2011 demo "Disobey"

Also, if its not clear from past interviews, Aluna Francis of AlunaGeorge used to go by Francis Noon when she was half of My Toys Like Me. MTLM was a bit more UFO toy trip hop than AG, but the first of their two albums Where We Are (2009) is well worth checking out.

man i just dk about 'white noise' sometimes
loth as i am to leave all these glittering earworms on the table but i might just have to admit grudgeful defeat to aluna on this one, she has taken the schtick an insurmountable step too far and enough is surely enough
"oi know yer [???], you spin me round loik a [???]"
i mean really, how can i feel chided by your knowing womanhood if you sound like a little urchin beckoning me up a chimney ffs

"i'm hearing static / you're like an automa'ic"
and then this, this is the worst, this inconsistent midglottalization tearing my soul apart, is it just a drop in brit school standards or is it perhaps the deliberately woven imperfection designed to lay the whole artifice bare, a cry for help

oh well, still a jam i suppose

Still having a hard time following this band, because the disorganized trickle of demos and YouTube videos doesn't give a clear entry point, but "Diver" is still the jam. Gives me a lot of hope for a proper album.

Now a #2 chart smash. If Jessie Ware is our Lisa Stansfield then what does that make her?

It's an okay track, but it's bettered by all the little weird synth choices.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 26 February 2013 20:07 (3 months ago) Permalink
yuck, boring British electro-pop. That's disappointing
― Evan R, Tuesday, 26 February 2013 20:30 (3 months ago) Permalink
There were better demo tracks that aren't getting an outing on Body Music.
"Make No Mistake""Double Sixes""Disobey"
