About British Sea Power
A rather conceptual indie band -- one that's been compared more than once to Joy Division -- British Sea Power is a quartet from Brighton, England, comprising members named Hamilton, Noble, Yan, and Wood. Formed in late 2000, their live shows began to receive notice early on, thanks in no small part to the large stuffed birds that perched on stage and the militaristic uniforms worn by the band members. Rough Trade's Geoff Travis was taken aback by one of the group's (literally) wild performances and signed them; by the end of 2001, they had two singles in the racks: Fear of Drowning on Golden Chariot and Remember Me on Rough Trade. The group released its' critically-acclaimed debut The Decline of British Sea Power in 2003. Open Season arrived in 2005, followed by Do You Like Rock Music? in early 2008. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide

My Delirium LadyHawke |
| Pip Brown a.k.a. Ladyhawke is a Kiwi born, Aussie based and, thanks to her timely 80's revivalism, Shoreditch adopted singer who started a solo career after many indie ventures, launched through the always trendy Modular stable. Her album, one of the most accomplished debuts of the year, distils big love for synth-pop in each and every cut and has earned her widespread critical acclaim. It was previewed by a couple of trendy bar favourites, "Paris is burning" and "From dusk til dawn" and offers many other excellent moments to discover. Third single "My Delirium" is a little pop-rock gem, nicely revisiting new wave era style. It could have been taken off one of Kim Wilde's early albums and hopefully will be the one that wins over the general public. | |
