Product Information

The band's alternately jangly and bombastic brand of indie guitar rock bears the influence of all three acts, as well as comparisons to contemporaries like Kasabian, Editors, and Kaiser Chiefs. You Overdid It Doll" charted at number 24 in Scotland and number 28 in the UK, while "Take Over the World" peaked at number 114 in the UK.

The Electric Lick EP was released on 5 December 2010, consisting of two new songs "Three Months" and "Swear Down", a cover of " Zero" (2009) by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, in addition to "Lullaby" and "Scratch Your Name Upon My Lips"; the ten-inch vinyl edition included . Over the next few months, they played at various festivals, leading up to another UK tour in late 2010, with support from Miles Kane and I Am Kloot. The song was released as the lead single from the album 11 days later; the CD edition included "I Never Wanted To".

Take Over the World" straddles between the indie sound of the band's past work and balladry, evoking " Viva la Vida" (2008) by Coldplay during its chorus sections.

The band released their first video album, titled Live at Manchester MEN Arena, in December 2011, which had been filmed at the Manchester arena in December 2010. The Rest of the World Has Gone Home" deals with the theme of loneliness in the style of Babyshambles, while "Sycophant" is a rock song that touches on folk and psychedelia. Wie anscheinend auch schon im Voralbum stecke eine Prise Franz Ferdinand drin, einige Lieder erinnerten mich an die kürzlich hochgeschossenen Glasvegas.

Lullaby" and "Scratch Your Name Upon My Lips" were released as a Double A-Side single in December 2010. Yes, Arctic Monkeys would be the closest thing – somewhere between Favourite Worst Nightmare and Humbug – but there are enough musical flourishes and pining ballads to earn the band the Elbow comparisons they blatantly desire. Between June and August 2010, the band performed at the Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, T in the Park, iTunes, Oxegen, Underage and V Festivals. They played two UK shows prior to supporting Morrissey on his tour of the United States in April and May 2009. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.
