Little Death @ Sneaky Pete’s, 27 Feb

Little Death's members are so laid back, they make The Fonz look like Frank Spencer. Quite a contrast to their post-punk groove, where they marry frequent, unusual harmonies with composite melodies. Their sound is like an unlikely collision between Interpol and The Strokes. They combine weeping, wailing guitar sounds and scratchy riffs with tight, punching bass-lines of the sort that The Cure produce. Plus, they’re an attractive bunch, comprising of a gorgeous female bassist, a cute drummer, a tousle-haired guitarist and a brooding singer - so if you don’t find yourself bouncing to the bass, there'll probably be somebody to swoon over.
