Nerdy they may be but their particular brand of introspection is quietly striking a chord. For their second release they've been taken on by Domino Recordings, home of Arctic Monkeys, and Days is one of the loveliest albums of the year.

In concert they had slightly sharper teeth, mainly thanks to the firm-handed drumming of touring member Jackson Pollis. The real joy came from the weaving, meandering guitar lines of Matt Mondanile and singer Martin Courtney, a gentle jangle reminiscent of Johnny Marr's more plaintive moments on Easy.

They found more energy when All the Same stepped up a gear in its instrumental second half and even managed something approaching a singalong chorus on It's Real. But it was Green Aisles that showed their best side, a dream in sound about "wasted miles" on "aimless drives". This song about drifting deserves to drift right into the ears of as many new fans as possible.
