High Voltage Review - Translation

High Voltage, a lovely Manchester Club Night / Record Label / Zine gave our single Peacock a review. While it contained words and I recognised those words as being English, that was where my comprehension ended. While I am flattered that our work has been reviewed in the style of Finnegans Wake and I'm thankful for the lack of Kubrick references, I wanted to know what the reviewer was saying.

The following translation is the result of many hours of scholarly study. If anyone disagrees with my interpretation please feel free to comment and correct me. We are all about discourse here.

High Voltage Single Reviews: Band(ism) - Peacock
===

Band(ism) - Peacock b/w Margate (acoustic)

You could have it so much better when you have a debut single that opens with one of 'those' basslines that can send a dirty disco into simultaneous groove in just the opening bars. Actually, 'Peacock' has been knocking around for more than 18 months now, although it has never been so well realised as this.

Opening with an indie disco friendly bass line which reminds me of Franz Ferdinand, Band(ism)'s Peacock has been available on the web in various forms for 18 months. This single version brings out the best qualities of the song.

Since then, White Rose Movement have leapt from the shadows and shown us their worth, and all the while, Band(ism) have been preening their feathers in our backyard. This, their gingerly taken steps out into the open, is not as fizzily edgy as the aforementioned

Unfortunately in those 18 months White Rose Movement have shot to fame with a similar style while Band(ism) have been playing local gigs. This single has come out too late and looks pale in comparison.

Backed both acoustically and indie-poppily; it's difficult to see exactly where Band(ism)'s intentions will prove lying, meaning that you still have to go and see them on stage to grasp what they are. Frustrated as it is though, Peacock is (as it was) a strong enough sign that is yet to lead us astray.

The B-side is acoustic, indie-pop and therefore I cannot really get a good idea of what the band are actually like so I must go and see them. Peacock is a strong song from a band who may yet prove to be interesting.
