Best song of the year so far for me! Hands down!
Ok, so it was actually released in June last year as the B-side of The Jakpot's debut 7" single Too Much Time but I only just discovered it two days ago :-) This is the demo version by the way.
Now, this gives me the same excitement as when I first heard those by now famous Arctic Monkeys demos back in the summer of 2005. And that's saying something!
The band is from Manchester and has according to their website been in the studio lately working on new songs. Apparently they are still unsigned but I'm sure they'll get picked up sooner rather than later.
The video included here is from the launch party of their single and just shows how much fun a gig really should be. Oh, and check the big looking bald bouncer trying to get people off the stage. Now, such nice bouncers are rare these days!
Oh, and did I already mention that this song is absolutely great?
Bonus: This song along with other demos can be downloaded at www.thejakpotdownloads.co.uk.

I was just trying to get something else of savefile right now and get the same message. So the whole savefile site seems affected. I got the Jakpot songs two days ago without problems.Blimey! The number of contributors are really growing - so show me all that new exciting US music!
