Current Hyped Bands No.9: The Bandits

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Haven't heard any of their stuff, but having read the Amazon review, I'm liking the sound of this lot.

 

Anyone??

This wasn't the ol' "give 'em a really great review, and we'll sell 5hitloads" ploy, was it?

The only reviews I take half a notice of are the ones by people who've "bought the product". And even then, some of those reviews are by people associated with the band...

What did it say to make you interested?

This was a customer review.

 

Likened them to the Coral etc.

Not Ladbrokes or William Hill then?

Turns out the customer reviews were written by Scousers, so there's every chance they were related to the band!!

From what I remember reading it was The Bandits that really started this new music scene in Liverpool with their Bandwagon club night. A bit like The Coral, though slightly less psychedelic and a bit more country, the album in my opinion is a great listen all the way through. I saw them when they supported Oasis on their UK tour last year and at Glastonbury, great performances every time.
