Thee SPC Say
Following on from their two critically acclaimed singles on Detail Records and Thee SPC, Smokers Die Younger release their debut album as a joint release from these two Sheffield labels. Taking its title from an abstruse and wholly irrelevant diagram by the philosopher Daniel C. Dennett, X Wants the Meat is an eclectic romp through a variety of idioms. The group's distinctive identity shines through their magpie approach to song construction: This identity is perhaps best summed up as an intuitive balance between left-field pop perfection and "a sea lion barking over a load of pneumatic drills".
A Selection of Reviews
“They're the soul-embracing band you dreamed you were discovering throughout your teenage years. Except that this time, you don't have to grow up because the music's as wise as you are. SDY are quite simply astounding, and every one of the eleven tracks on here is the best.” Drowned In Sound
“One of the most exciting albums of the year.” Picadilly Records (Album of the Week)
"This is a record that reminds you that there still can be surprises round the corner and people who want to use music to do far more than pay the mortgage. One to bring joy to the jaded heart." Sounds XP
“Forget your arctic monkeys, this is the sheffield band who know how to be truly inventive with a brutish jangle-angle.” Vanity Project
