Brass monkeys - believe the fact :lol: .

I beleve that you Bigged them up in the Megathread a while back Mr D, and since then, i own the album :D

yes, i like to think my finger is on the pulse of the musical heartbeat

i bigged hard fi, but they're chicken feed compared to this sheffield outfit. they're gonna be enormous, bigger than jesus i shouldnt wonder! :D

Not usually that keen on this type of music but I have to say, I am very impressed! 8)

the lyrics are fantastic. i'm amazed they're written by a 17 year old!

he's the Theo Walcott of the rock n roll world! :D

*EDIT*

for those who haven't a clue what i'm gibbering about, and lets face it there's probably many of you, Theo Walcott is the 16 year old used to play for my beloved Southampton, until the nasty Arsenal offered us £12m for him.

Not only did they offer £12mill. It was accepted by Rupert and Arsenal duly took the booty.

TBH £12m - £5m up front - for a 16 year old was too much to resist. I don't blame woopert for that one!

The lads are from High Green sheffield, My mates have seen them twice live before they released "bet that you look good on the Dancefloor" and hit number one. I hope they go far because they've got some crackin songs on the album.

Hmmm, a one album wonder i think

My favorite record shop in Derby reveal can't get enough copies of this album in talking to one of the staff he can't remember such a good seller.
Like both of the singles so may have to invest.

who :wink: :lol:

*runs*

Just got the album and am loving it.

Favourite line from a song so far "you're not from new york city, you're from rotherham!" :lol:

Oh and I concur with KD. Top quality album.

Isn't it one of the fastest selling albums in the UK ever ?
It is good though, I think "From the Ritz to the Rubble" is my fave track so far.

agreed. fantastic record, gotta be a future single :D

Don't like 'em. Decidedly mediocre and nothing new. A classic example of a band doing better than they deserve to, because their songs are a bit catchy and radio 1 play them incessantly. Bah, humbug!

so, whats your definition of a good record then? one thats not catchy? one that doesn't make people smile and sing along?

"a band doing better than they deserve" ? why, pray tell mr cowell, DON'T they deserve to do well? let's hear a pearl of your wisdom? can't wait to hear this.....

Best thing from sheffield since steel :lol: They rule.

Never ever heard of em , and then all of a sudden - they are the fastest sellers ever? Must be getting old and i'm only 33!!!!!!!!!!!!
