Awesome new band to fall in love with or pretentious tossers? I'm undecided, and will remain so until I see them play live. What do you think?

'Formed A Band' made me really angry... they wrote a song about forming a band... pathetic. Though I think 'Modern Art' is pretty cool and I like the way their guitarist does fast atdi-like bits on his guitar.
I'm not sure really, I'll have to make my mind up when I next hear something by them.

NO NOP NO NONO
im sorry to wade in with my oar on this one! but big no!
i ahve been unfortunate enougth to see them twice!
oh lord hath mercy! not once but twice!
aRGH
the first time they where supporting POLYSICS (?? why? who on earth put them on the bill?) - the tunes are generally lazy and unimaginative and the whole band has a kind of 'we know whatever we do is gonna get bumraped by mainstream music press , as the whole ramshackle cockney-punk retro revival thing is flavour of the year so far-smugness about themselves'
plus the jokse arnt especially funny
BUT their biggest 'asset' is that fucking singer.
the second occasion was when i was staying in camden- i bumped into a mate from school - he was going to see tehm at the barfly!! - i should ahve known better! i mean come one , i was at least gonna be better than a night in watching eastenders?
WRONG
both occasions that fucking singer put on exactly the same show. and what show was this? make a big deal out of being pissed as possible on stage?
oh the origionality?
rockstars drinking? whatever next? they will be sleeping with groupies? THATS CRAZY?
yep twice , he lets his band go onstage without him - buys a drink at the back of the room and then ploughs through the crowd to clamber up onstage and apparent 'sing' although to me it just sounds like someone talking , vaguely in time to the music, trying to be funny.
end
