This features strings tickled by Claire, and Mike Siddel of Hope of the States, Troubles and Lightspeed Champion fame.
Carrying on the tradition of good indie rock bands that start with 'My First', My First Radio are releasing a single, Progress via the God is in the TV singles club. They're getting a fair bit of press. They're from Kettering and Corby. Is that where the trouser press comes from? Does it matter? When you think about it for long enough, does anything really matter? Regardless of these questions, it's quite a good single, and the A side is strong. It reminds me a bit of Remote Part era Idlewild, and it's rich, layered indie piano ballad with a Six by Seven wailing guitar kick halfway through. The B-side channels Bloc Party/Redjetson. Drowned in Sound should love it.

hmmm
not keen. Sounds a bit too formulaic, and don't like the singer. Mike should stick with Sons Of Noel And Adrian.
well...fair enough
you should try some of the other myfr stuff though its much more in your face/ shoegazey....
a bump
just for fun

"There is nothing here that's completely original, but then, what is original these days."
- as JAGed elsewhere.
Sums them up nicely, I think.
But he has a point to an extent
Anyway your entitled to your opinion. If you check out this and their earlier stuff, I don't think you can call it unorginal and dull...Its actually quite a heartfelt take on their influences. Which is more than most manage.
he has a point
in that there's nothing original to it. But there's plenty of original music around even today.
I've listened to plenty of myfirstradio's music, what with them being JAGed constantly on the HotS board. I can - and do - call it unoriginal and dull.
Fair enough
what I don't understand is why you'd post in so many mfr threads if you think they're so dull.
many?
one?
this makes
two.
