Captain
Captain signed to EMI and their impossibly catchy single, 'Frontline', was on heavy rotation from your usual indie/rock DJ suspects. Five square pegs in one round hole. Five opposites; no common dress code, no two-tone hair, no skinny T-shirts, wildly different pasts, no mention of Joy Division, The Stones, The Clash or Blondie. No apparent reason, in fact, why Captain should exist. But they're here and they'll soon be bewitching the world with their wistful, emotive songs. If Brian Wilson, Karen Carpenter, Burt Bacharach, Billy Corgan and Kevin Shields all merged into one you'd still only be halfway to the Captain sound. As comfortable with pop as they are with vast soundscapes, this band aren't interested in any scenes. They're busy forging their own. Debut album 'This Is Hazelville' is out now.
