I went yesterday to London calling fall 2007. One year ago I also blogged about the event. Last year I had a bitter taste, and left the venue somewhat disappointed and mourning dead good old BritPop. This year I left the venue more drunk and satisfied. Three bands really deserve to be mentioned and I really liked two of them.
The one I did not like but enjoyed is new young pony club... they're to bananarama what the darkness was to thin lizzy (watch a video here). Priceless looks and really enjoyable if drunk enough.
The voice seems to me a bit similar to Robert Smith's. They are reportedly already big in the UK. These guys will open Bloc party on Wednesday here in Amsterdam. Definitely a worth-watching support act.
