Live Review: Shitdisco, The Long Blondes

Just back from the King's College show, where I missed The Boyfriends but managed to see most of Shitdisco and, of course, The Long Blondes.

Not much to say about Shitdisco but that they really live up to their name. Not impressed.

However, The Long Blondes did a terrific set, with the only dissapointment being no encore (almost unheard of nowadays!)



Giddy Stratospheres was a real highlight. Kate (lead singer) has not only a fabulous sense of style, but great attitude and presence on stage.


To be honest I didn't know a lot of the material, most of it sounded good though. Looking forward to hearing more from these guys.


Their new single, "Weekend Without Makeup", is out June 26th on Rough Trade.



You can check out the video for the new single here.
