To My Boy - The Grid(Abeano Music)

Maximo Park with a malfunctioning Gameboy in their sweaty palms

Article by Milo McLaughlin | 12 Dec 2006
With fledgling new rave bands taking over the country like a swarm of electro-locusts (according to the NME anyway), it was only a matter of time before an electro Maximo Park crawled out of the circuit boards with a malfunctioning Gameboy in their sweaty palms. The duo who go by the terrible name of To My Boy are Scousers (via Durham), and they appear to have listened to both Devo and those cheesy early 90s rave tunes that sampled children's TV show themes like 'Trip To Trumpton'. Scotland's own Matchsticks are better at it though. [Milo McLaughlin]
