Little Boots – Hands
Everyone has heard the hype. The La Roux Vs Little Boots nonsense. Was it worth the wait? Yes it was. Victoria Hesketh has delivered a classic pop album in the rich vein of Goldfrapp or Kylie. I saw her in a tiny club in Newcastle in late 2008 and you could tell pop stardom beckoned and her debut longer player doesn’t disappoint.

I have been really enjoying your "True Love Will Find You In The End" single. Can you tell us bit about how you approached covering the song? Thanks a lot.

Similar in form and style to No Age, Wavves and all that, Crocodiles differ from their LA compatriots by the sheer amount of dark, psychedelic weirdness they manage to cram into their lo-fi noise pop.

Making their first UK appearance at the Old Blue Last on the back of their new LP 'Summer of Hate', the line-up also includes thrashy noise act Internet Forever and the first ever World exclusive ...

Six years later, we’re still plugging away. Could you describe the “isolation... [Read more of this Interview]
