Album Description

Debut album from Edinburgh four piece The Magnificents, who mix the raw punk power of The Stooges with the looping proto-dance floor boffinry of Kraftwerk - test pilots for a new sound that should rightfully see them installed as the Jesus & Mary Chain for the electronic generation. The Magnificents have toured with Mogwai, Enon, Broadcast & Stereolab, and just finished a tour in the UK with The Beta Band. They were the NME's tip for 2004 as part of "Artwave - The New British Invasion."

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Really exciting.......2005-04-06

Great CD, unusual that this band aren't better known. Perhaps they're lazy or drunk, they sound so excited and dark. People who like DFA1979, early 80s electro and anything with that Albini production edge he had back in the 80s should really dig this.
