It seems that you can’t move around in London at the moment without somehow arriving at gig.  From recent listings, it appears that if there’s an indiepop gig happening, they will be there to support.  Which isn’t a bad thing because it shows they are taking this lark seriously and because they are really quite excellent, particularly for what is ultimately a new band.  Of course, the grand irony in all of this is that I still haven’t managed to see them.

Following on from their great (and brilliantly timely) Konny Huck single, the band are back with a new release that was apparently only finished up last week.  Gone are the days when you waited months for a release to be sorted out, now they are with us a few days after a band finishes them.  Anyway, Easter Island doesn’t really deviate from what the standard set by Huck, which is fine as the band are sounding increasingly assured in what they are doing.

MP3 Tigercats – 1985

Easter Island is out now in physical form and on the wonderful Bandcamp, where you can buy all three songs for a mere £1.  It’ll follow on iTunes and other such services on October 1.  It’s being released by Haircut Records.
