OI OI OI
Been listening to this band Milburn for the past few days. Apparently they're from the same town as Arctic Monkeys, broke on the scene around the same time, if not earlier, and have almost the exact same sound - heavily accented vocals, reverb laden guitars reminiscent of dick dale or scott walker, scorching tempos, and a knack for clever word play. They even toured with their townmates. For some reason though, they never blew up -- i guess there was only room enough for one band with that sound. but what the hell!! These guys are awesome, totally deserving of as much credit, if not more. Do your scummy selves a favor and support these now broken up assholes from Sheffield. I recommend the album "These are the Facts." DO IT NOW MY BLOODSUCKING MINIONS!
