I bought this album in October last year, shortly before the release of 'Commercial Breakdown.' I'd seen them live and couldn't get over how great they were and the atmosphere which their performance created, so the very next day I went out and bought this.
I was not dissapointed. Its a great album for almost anyone, it has an indie sound to it, but is also great to dance to and is very easy on the ears. I would deffinately say that if youd don't buy it / don't like it, then theres something wrong.
One of the best albums I bought last year.. (closely rivalled by Muse)

I bought this on the strength of hearing "Put In Your Place" and I am pleased to write this is a superb album. Their style is punk/funk and it's very danceable . In a way they sound similar to The Rapture and there is a hint of the Stone Roses on a couple of tracks but what really stands out is the singers voice, it's fantastic.
I also had the pleasure of seeing these lads live and they are electrifying and had real presence which made me think they could go on to bigger and better things. The songs have another dimension when you hear them at a gig.
If you looking for a band with a slightly different sound to the usual guitar bands then you could do worse then check this out.
Enjoy!!

Wellington may have the best voice of any musician fronting a British band
his wails together with the effortlessly melodic bounce forge a great combination and really make the tracks 'put your in your place' and 'commercial breakdown' what they are pure GOLD!
the new wave, synth pop combo they have going on Raise the Alarm is used to perfection and never gets tiresome.
Worth the great british publics hard earned pennies

Criminally underrated
The Sunshine Underground have produced an indie album with just a hint of "new rave" (whatever that actually means) which is consistently brilliant from start to finish. Read more

Well worth seeing
Having found this band on a sampler, I bought the album "just to give them a look". Loved the album and got tickets to see the band at a small venue in Northampton. Read more

One of the very best albums I heard all year. Really good to dance to and you just cannot help but sing along to just about every track - however bloomin awful your voice is. Read more

My most anticapted album of the year
It isn't out yet but the singles, the b-sides and the live performances all point to this being one of the most eagerly-anticipated debuts of the year. Read more
