    Great band from Scotland. Signed to FatCat records with a debut album coming out in June.

    They're getting a good bit of press at the moment and are a band that I have high hopes for.

    You can listen to their debut album on the FatCat website here:

    Don't they have that song 'Quiet Little Voices'? I think that's a tune of the highest order.

    That's them alright. And that's not their best song by half I don't think. There's some real quality stuff on the album.

    They played HWCH last year ... one of the few bright lights of what was otherwise a really disappointing festival. I think they're all about 12.

    Quiet Little Voices is one of the best things I've heard this year. If that's not their best song by half....

    Check the album out for yourself. Fat Cat have it streaming on their website:

    http://fat-cat.co.uk/fatcat/release.php?id=293

    Personally I like Moving Clocks Run Slow, Ships With Holes Will Sink, Roll Up Your Sleeves and Conductor an awful lot.

    I'd also recommend that people purchase the album when it comes out next month and not just download them illegally.

    They are literally poor students and deserve the support.
