Los Campesinos!

Read a favourable review of this lot in today's paper so in an idle moment I tracked them down for a listen or two.

Based out of Cardiff, they formed in 2006 and released some singles last year – their name means The Peasants in Spanish – and they are a seven piece.

I love the sound they make and they sure do go in for some interesting song titles, take this one The International Tweexcore Underground or how about their latest single Death To Los Campesinos!.

Last one is around 6 mins in length – cool video though. They have a page on MySpace if you are interested.

Clever and funny. Remind me a bit of Polyphonic Spree.

No wait, they're more New Pornographers.

Have a grand sojourn, dba! You will be missed out here at the Rat. Hope they have more than Java coffee for you to partake in.
