The rakes
 

again, i saw their video for retreat ( man i miss discovering new music through videos.....i only get italian mtv during the summer...*sigh*) and i thought they were ok, any comments, views?

they're awsome, can't believe they managed to get a slot at glasto but good for them! short catchy tunes, so very commercial but they are cool

oh yeah...just listened to the album on nme.com and it's really good!! kaiser chiefs eat you heart out ( similar style, maybe a bit more ska-ish, but far better music )

The Rakes
 

Has any of you guys ever heard of a new band called the Rakes there absolutely fantastic there debut album is like a rock version of the streets

a rock version of the streets?

Got the album for nothing & still feel I was ripped off

They may as well have called themselves Franz Killers Hot Hot Kaiser Party or something.

You`d love them.

dear god, a negative review by urban hatemonger....well now i've seen everything......
and it just goes to show you how much you pay attention to my threads.....I STARTED A THREAD ABOUT THEM A MONTH AGO!

Damn if I had known that I wouldn`t have got the album.

The new album is out and about...pretty bland...I guess they were a one trick pony...

And yay for my first merge!*proud*

ooohh the song called cold is pretty awesome
