Boy, 'Hold on Now, Youngster' is the album 2008 has been waiting for since it began. An awesome way to start the year in the company of your new best friends, Los Campesinos!. The debut from these seven spritley mobsters will no doubt be an important album for anyone who can see beyond the musical spawns of The Libertines et al and place good old fashioned indie high on the agenda where it belongs. Twelve songs to soundtrack: summer bbq's, picnics, bike rides and scavaging through charity shops, each oosing with an admirable british sarcasm seen rarely since the demise of Hefner.
Infact, imagine the babies of Hefner and Mo*ho*bish*opi with the characteristics of a subtle spoken verse of Ooberman, and here you find Los Campesinos. Brilliant and more fun than you can shake a stick at, with beautifully crafted styles and beats, Hold on Now, Youngster will make you feel super. Believe me. Now off you pop and add some sunshine to your day. For more information you can visit: http://www.loscampesinos.com
