He said he hated them. Then he said he liked them . Now he's back to hating them.

It's quite nice. Unusual voice, but a good one. Gets the emotion across.

I wish Dave Smith would give them a second listen and not be so judgemental and dismissive. :wink:

In one of the muisc mags they ask about fave lyrics and the one singer quotes Scott Walker's The Old Man's back again.I knew they liked Scott....

Will be a travesty if they don't win (but if they don't i'd like Foals to win)

The Guardians reaction to the Mercury shortlist -

"My own favourite album on the list comes from Wild Beasts, whose music is hard to quantify (though you could reductively describe them as indie-pop). The Kendal four-piece have many remarkable strings to their bow: two lead singers capable of singing both in falsetto and baritone, an intrinsic understanding of rhythm and groove, a gift for visceral and poetic lyrics. They are also just the kind of band who could benefit from the exposure a Mercury win would bring them: they're near enough the mainstream to accumulate a growing fanbase and critical praise, but without that translating to significant sales – yet."
