Release Date: 26th July
Such is the healthy state of the
undiscovered music scene in the UK (I hate to use unsigned now, everyone's
unsigned aren't they?), that so many bands I come across are sharing members
with other bands and often in a completely musical sphere. Such is the case
with Bristol sibling duo Milo's Planes whose drummer, Joe Sherrin, already
performs with previous Listen With Monger favourites Me, You and Thomas. The
beauty in doing this, though, is the opportunity to express your different
musical leanings while you decide what it is that turns you on the most. In the
case of Milo's Planes, brothers Joe and Harry are exploring their lo-fi
indie-punk side channelling the Fall and the Sex Pistols mixed with We Are
Scientists and A in A-side number one, 'Told You Twice'. There's simplicity, a
rough'n'readiness that has a huge appeal and an urgency that suggests they were
running low on the electricity meter whilst recording this in their bedrooms
surrounded by bottles of half drunk cheap red wine and the fading posters of
their musical idols. 'New Tricks' is an altogether more mature sounding song
which suggests real talent in the construction of an anthemic melody and some
sneering but perfectly pitched vocal harmonies. In fact, the only frustrating
thing about this duo is that you feel like they are spending too much time
sampling the buffet when, with a little patience and work, they could easily
dining at a banquet - such is the quality of their potential. Still, they've
only got 34 likes on Facebook so why not pop over and give them a boost, might
make them stick at something longer than five minutes.....kids today eh?
