The Big Pink

Brit-Pop-Electro-Shoegazers, The Big Pink are set to release their debut album this April on 4AD. The band is bound to make a big splash, judging by the praise they're already receiving from uh buncha critics. The lads sounds a bit like Jesus & Mary Chain meets early Verve, but in a totally good way. Their first single, unoriginally titled "Velvet" already has a sweet video that features lots of black and white, bare skin, and serious faces with some psyched-out mirror visuals thrown in. Its a cool clip and compliments the music pretty well(which is well worth a listen!) So check these dudes:

and for those of you who don't believe The Verve did anything worth while besides that played out "Bittersweet Symphony," than check out this jam off of their first album (which is uhhh-mazinggg) A Storm In Heaven:
