Scepticism abounds when faced with another 'dirty, scuzzed up London' band - but when they sound like The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster invading the Inspiral Carpets' rehearsal room and doing all sorts of ungodly things to it, such doubts tend to dissolve.
A decent b-side - 'Getting Low' (The Rapture gone low-budget and East London) - helps as well.
