Whilst flicking through the web

earlier on, the aforementioned ampcamp mentioned Working For A Nuclear Free City. The description, of this band who hail from M

anchester, with impeccably cool sounding Manchester sound (no, definitely do not mean Madchester) have swept me off my feet, er, sonically speaking.

It took me a while to find their MySpace, largely because it’s www.myspace.com/wfanfc (that could have been hours

spent googling). I was NOT disappointed – to the extent that having listened to all four tracks streamed there, I went and bought their album. They might be indie, they might be dance, but this is not a Madchester re-hash, nor yet another band claiming to be influenced by Gang Of Four etc… So many bands claim to be influenced by violently cool names and yet re-hash the Beatles; rather like the X-Vectors, they are a band with a lot of dance influences.

I can only r

ecommend that you go to their MySpace page, hear the tracks for yourself, and check out these two posts at The white Noise revisited: here and here. They have hints of acts as diverse as the Doves, Happy Mondays

and A Certain Ratio – yet there’s something else too…

Now do

yourself a favour and go and buy the album, either on CD or even better, on vinyl.
