Really like Royworld, been watching them for a while and things are progressing well.

My favourite NNRM band that is playing at the moment is The Broadcast from Hitchin. Really fresh with a nod to After The Fire ( Sony 1979 - 81 ) great mini synth lines and getting very popular in Herts.
Really like Royworld and Air Traffic off the list and have seen a couple of the others.
Going to go down to the Borderline gig for Royworld and with Fandango releasing their single in March ( as they did with Air Traffic ) and Radio 1 all over it like a rash this certainly looks an exciting set of new bands.
