I’ll say my bit – and agree how can a band from Bury be classed as “middleclass”???? Take the time to listen to the words and understand what they mean. Their songwriting is brilliant and they say things most people go “hey that’s right” but have no idea how to say it. Seldom Seen Kid was THE album of 2008 and I was so looking forward to Build A Rocket Boys and must admit when I first heard it I thought “Oh”
But it’s honestly honestly just got better and better and I love it. I did at first think it had about 3 stand-out tracks but no way, not anymore, it’s getting up to SSK standards with Open Arms, Lippy Kids, With Love, Neat Little Rows, The Night Will Always Win and Dear Friends – it’s a brilliant album.
