I’m loving the sound of Fighting With Wire, Lostprophets and Funeral For a Friend supporting Welsh quartet The New 1920 on this sunny afternoon…
I don’t like to make comparisons too often because it lacks creativity on my part but they remind me a lot of We Are Scientists. Really awesome hooks, great riffs and more energy than a hyperactive child. ‘Amber Gambler’ and ‘Head For The Exit’ already sound like instant classics. I can already picture the sticky floors in indie clubs across the nation being stomped on good and proper when these tunes come on.
Y’know when you listen to something and you know it’s good straight away? The New 1920 are one of those bands. They will be massive.
They’re on tour next week:
22nd – Talking Heads, Southampton
23rd – The Freebutt, Brighton
24th – Islington Bar Academy, London
25th – Rock City, Nottingham
26th – The Flapper, Birmingham
