Panda Cubs
Panda Cubs are newcomers, but they appear to have emerged fully-formed. They may sit in that gloomy corner occupied by the myriad bands who’ve based their sound on Joy Division’s blueprint, while having also synthesised many elements of the contemporary crop – Editors, Interpol, White Lies – but damn, they’ve got songs and are remarkably accomplished. Their debut single, ‘Faithful’ is a cracking dark pop tune and by no means the best song in the set. Having already received airplay on BBC Introducing and the NME website and bagged a support slots with Sissy and the Blisters and Glasvegas in the seven months since they formed, it’s hard to imagine that they’re anywhere other than at the beginning of a rapid ascent.
