25 February 2006

Len Price 3 play America! Well they're playing SxSW and NY in March and they really are one of the most exciting live bands I've seen in some time. Go check them out if you love short, sharp, melodic garage rock with more hooks than a ship full of pirates. Now if someone would be good enough to send Chomsky over to London then the cultral exchange will be complete. Cheers.
I should note that they're available on iTunes and you can get a taste of their music on MySpace.

SXSW is in "Texas somewhere?" Assholes.

I like the MySpace sample. So when do they play Cambridge? :D

That pretty much sums up what I love. They sound great dodgy, and you have a great pop track record in my book, so I'm adding this to my buy list. They remind me of DM3 and the Insomniacs or a less gritty Fall Outs.

And it's nice to see somebody waving the Chomsky flag. I loved that record. Unless, or course, you're talking about NOAM Chomsky - to whom I just can't dance to.

You know, it wouldn't surprise me if they did. They play all sorts of places. But, uh, by the looks of it not any time soon.

Thanks dude. I got Editors on your recommendation and loved it. I'll have to check out those other bands.

Just checking, but you know they've done two albums? If you haven't heard the first then you're seriously missing out.

I didn't know they had another album. I have Let's Get To Second, which I love. And if you say the first one is better, I'm ordering it from somewhere this weekend.

Yeah, you're missing out on the joys of Straight Razor and Herod's Daughter as well as (IMHO) superior versions of 15 Minutes To Rock and Light as well as others. Unfortunately the album's called Onward Quirky Soldiers, but apart from the title it's a damn fine record.

Here's a taster:
Chomsky - Straight Razor

dodgy - incredibly weird timing - a friend and I are playing recently purchased albums the other one hasn't heard - and the second album he put on was the Len Price 3! After hearing a few full songs I'll definitely be buying a copy for myself soon.

Man that's beatiful. And tell your friend that no matter how good they are on vinyl, they're twice is good in the flesh.
