The singer of The Virgins sounds remarkably like Joe Strummer, and the music is 'Combat Rock' era The Clash, albeit played by Hard Fi. I wonder what the New York equivalent of Slough is - plenty of white trainers, skewed baseball caps and Nike vests in evidence - Aiii!
Black Kids are great - such a joyous fun performance. One hopes they can survive the indie dance-pop backlash that is surely just around the corner but if they continue to write songs of the calibre of 'Hit the heartbreaks' and 'I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You' then there shouldn't be a problem...
