Cheers K  :)

I can't wait for this album, I've said it before but what a great year for music!

& yeah the video is excellent!
"Directed by director Romain Gavras, their debut video is as big as Mother Russia, following our intrepid heroes' adventures in Moscow and includes ice skating, an Orthodox priest, Soviet tanks and a chorus of Russian Soldiers."

I love the tanks!

"For a two-week lark between mates, The Last Shadow Puppets is an awesome achievement."

Not bad at all! I like the new myspace tracks. I've got it on order but probably won't pick it up for another couple of weeks until my parents have left.

This, Pete Molinari & the new Roots  :D

I have plans to check out the tracks after the lil ones go to bed.

I'm hoping they have it on Itunes Tuesday. I do not want to have to go the route that I did to get the Supergrass album.

The harmonies sound great, don't they? Definitely a very cool 60's vibe going on  :)

You should give The Coral a listen MJ: http://www.myspace.com/thecoral

They're good friends with The Monkeys, Oasis etc (Noel let them finish their last album in his studio for free when they run out of money)
They've been around for a good few years now & play similar retro pop/rock with harmonies/strings etc

Will do. That's an awesome story about the studio. Good to have friends in the right places.
