6th: Snow Club

Many moons ago we played a gig at the Hi-Fi club with a wonderful duo by the name of Slow Club, they've gone on to great things since becoming part of the Moshi Moshi club and releasing a couple of albums to massed critical claim and a decent amount of commercial success to boot.

In the midst of that they found time to release a frankly wonderful Christmas EP called "Christmas Thanks For Nothing" this sense of bah humbug is perfectly apt for the early part of December before the Christmas cheer hits those of us who aren't quite happy to be seeing the tree's go up at the start of October!

For me the stand out track on this ep was the excellent Christmas TV, a beautiful plea for a lover to fail to get away for Christmas and be forced back to your place to entwine in front of the best festive offerings from Auntie Beeb.
