Age of Understatement

Having caught a glimpse of the video, I find myself wondering if there will be a stand up, knock down fight between The Last Shadow Puppets (in no way the Arctic Monkeys) and the other Beatle wannabes, Oasis.

Of course, given that there are really only two of each band (as far as I am aware) maybe they should team up for a video, just to get the numbers right. I must remember to load the video up on YouTube when I get home, see what they sound like.

TLSP isn't the Arctic Monkeys it's Alex, the main chap from the AMs and another chap from a Liverpool band called The Rascals and I think their current single is spiffing. I can't see any Beatlesness in the track. It's very Joe Meeks and not a little Scott Walker, all big strings, horse-galloping noises and spaghetti-western twanging none of which makes me think Fab 4.

Not the track - which I haven't heard, to the best of my knowledge - it's the visuals where the pair of them look Beatley circa 1965, complete with tanks etc from "Help".

As I said, I shall be trying to have a listen tonight on YouTube.

Ah I misunderstood. The Soviet video is most fun.
