Thee SPC Say
Smokers Die Younger's debut release on Detail Records. The vinyl sold out ages ago, so it's great to be able to offer the MP3s. A Side "S.D.Y" is also on their album "X Wants The Meat", but it's the exclusive b-side "Consumer Advice" that's the gem here.
A Selection of Reviews
"This is mensa-level pop that you can dance to. 'Consumer advice' is another song brimming over with fresh ideas as it builds gradually, full of guitar and keyboard melodies. They're hard to categorise but this is one band you should be seeking out urgently. As Marc Riley has said: 'I'm havin' that'!" Sounds XP
"Single of The Week: This is one of those singles that's hard to pigeon-hole - which is usually a good thing. There's a hint of early Pavement in there, but overall, although you can pick up plenty of reference points, they manage to not really sound like anyone else. Mighty fine indeed!" Piccadilly Records
"'Consumer advice' is a slower affair, with an infectious bassline, heartfelt vocals, driving guitars and simple keyboards, building up into a crescendo as the song goes on. This is startlingly good stuff. Hard to categorise, incredibly individual, yet very easy to like." Sandman Magazine
"Refreshing blast of off-kilter pop. Swirling waves kinda like my bloody valentine but more ramshackle, with a strangely pogues-y delivery and clever lyrics. B-side is a slow building affair, a bit pixies with a joy division undercurrent." Jumbo
