The Young Knives - Up all night.
This is the second single of The Young Knives third album "Superabundance"
A much more focused album than there first couple of albums, which may prove to disappoint a lot of there fans as it is nowhere near as crazy or unpredictable as their previous offerings. that is not to say that this album is a "normal" modern indie album, not at all as it delights with its kooky, catchy, geeky indie-pop anthems. Personally i think this propels the band forward in terms of song writing (music and lyrics.) The first two singles (TerraFirma and Up all night.) Show the progression of the band straight away and also the ability to retain there own distinctive style.
With so many bands trying to appear unknowing or uncaring about there image and style it is so fresh to see a band that you know were never the "in kids" refuse to bow to expectations from your average tight jean, hairspray wearing, sounding like there about to cry or spit in your face, and yet get so far in today's fickle music industry. So take a chance on the Young Knives, listen to there albums and embrace your inner geek.
