"Ex-men, divine intervention" Daily Record "Underworld after six pints of mild" The Sunday Times "Sort of swing-beat with a little pop sensibility" Gill Mills "We are loving this at BBC Radio Scotland headquarters" Vic Galloway, Radio 1 "I'd rather live out the rest of my days high on skag than allow The Ex-men to sully my senses ever again" The List Top 5 albums of the month: Skinny "Not sure how the references to jism and Tracy Emin's bush would go down with the teatime millions" Metro "Acclaimed DIY videos" Tom Robinson, 6music Track listing: the curator / use my brain / wordcage / cursed / a life of love / c'est pas grave / suck her / mouthpiece / now! / falling / the next 30 / godot on call waiting / famous Anyway, we're a two-piece, speaking, electronic thing...piece one: Matt Green ( The Tall Boy , Juno ) piece two: Jack Sims...and we'll be gigging it somewhere near you soon. Thanks to everyone who's been playing us over the last few months (Sharon Oakley on Clyde 1, Vic Galloway on Radio 1, Jim Gellatly on XFM, Keith Manson on Black Diamond). There'll be a link to the shows on Resonance and Black Diamond soon. Check the blog for other links. We've also been working with some other musicians. Popcorn Superhet has done a fantastic shoegaze remix of Suck her and there're tracks up done with Adam Zanders (Fantasy Control) and Rajaneesh Dwivedi (Fanga) and Nick Ramm (Cinematic Orchestra, Clown Revisited). Hopefully we'll be working more with these guys in the future. So what's going on with the Ex-men right now? We did our Eurovision thing down at Shunt (Check out the vid over there | |
