The Pigeon Detectives - 'The Romantic Type'
Five skinny boys in leather jackets, guitars, good hair, primal drum-beat...nope, it's not the Strokes and they're not playing 'Last Nite', this is a very different thing...kinda.
In the course of their duties, these Detectives have managed to use their fine sleuthing skills to pull together many different threads in order to solve the case. None from outside the indie sector, of course, but still, more than just the one.
For starters there's a couple of Arctic Monkey hairs on the lyric sheet, and extensive audio analysis has revealed a smidge of Jarvis Cocker's DNA, hidden in the verses. And then there's the chorus, which seems to be part of a shipment which was stolen from Little Man Tate by armed robbers. You might have seen that on Crimewatch.
Of course, too much attention to detail misses the bigger picture, which is that the song itself is all fire and spirit, helter-skelter and pell-mell and everything. So while it's fun to put the case together, in actual fact it turns out that there's been no crime committed here after all.
Move along people, nothing to see here...
Released: January 26th
