The 'Shanks Army

We swear Roland Shanks didn't have so many cute boys in it last time we saw them. How nice. They've brought an army of fans along with them today, some of whom go "Oi oi!" approvingly, which is almost entirely at odds with their fuzzy Bloc Party / Art Brut indie sounds. If you close your eyes you expect to see a band jumping around and being a bit "mental". But they stand. And stand. Maybe it's playing the tiny Brixton Windmill too many times, but they stare at their shoes too much for people making such happy noises. "You can dance to this one," says the singer before they launch into current single 'Tarantula'. Well yeah, but so can you.
