Owen Dyke gives good rock face.
White Rose Movement confuse us when drunk, as we're never sure whether they're named after a garage or a cockney supermarket. When sober however, their brand of electrock is pretty damn hot: while it's got one foot planted firmly in the 80s, it's still more XTC than Franz Ferdinand. Don't let their hair and clothes fool you either: regardless of the fact that they're headlining, they're very well-mannered boys and girls and there's no redundant posturing, just the sound of furious foot tapping. Well, as much sound as you can get when stamping on grass. Sod it. We did an interview with White Rose Movement for Questivals which, due to a horrible combination of events, we no longer have so sorry about that. They really like Polish speed, we remember that much. Hear more of them at www.myspace.com/whiterosemovement. |
