working for a nuclear free city

sounds like some mondays/roses/shoegaze fans might like these fellow mancs (apologies if posted elsewhere, search function wasn't working):

"Meanwhile, it's been 17 years since the Happy Mondays and Stone Roses made a city go Mad, and fellow townsfolk Working for a Nuclear Free City, thankfully, have long memories. Like early Roses or Screamadelica-era Primal Scream, WfaNFC purvey a druggy amalgam of rave, rock, and pop, generous with block-rockin' breakbeats, full-body bass grooves, and crystalline dream-pop comedowns. The blissed-out guitar drones of shoegazers like Slowdive strobe-light the fog-machine air. Throw in vintage Lou Reed and you'd have Trainspotting 2006: Choose Waking Life. "

the rest of the review sounds better than that excerpt above but it seemed the best one to post.

yea Neish i liked them enough on the samples to send it for the brother's birthday, i think he'd be way into them. right up his alley so to speak. with this sort've stuff getting a lot of resurrecting (no pun, ahem) with other bands like caribou and The Music, i wonder if it's long before we see the emergence of... neo-grunge??!
