The Bright & Shiny
I've got love
Elektrofuzz/DGR

Sorry, but I've tried to like this but even though there are some rather exciting moments here, the overall feeling I get from listening is boredom. 2005 was full of bands sounding like New Order, and 2006 looks like to be a(nother) year of Joy Division clones. The Bright & Shiny sound like a mix of both these British institutions, but unfortunately they're nowhere near as good. I might give them another shot in a couple of years though, since there's some potential to be found somewhere in these songs, but they're just not good enough for me to listen to them again.
