The Mercury Prize 2009 winning album, Fantasy Black Channel has finally come out. The tracks, in one version or another, have been floating about for the better part of a year now, but they still sound so good. Go and buy this record. People are having trouble slapping a label on this, it really is just mental. No mutant genre mash up will really do this justice, all you really need to know is that its sick like Freddy Mercury in the eighties and you need to own a copy. They are also a fucking incredible live band, having seen them grace stages in bars, venues, festivals, a shop and even on one occasion a multi story car park, I can guarantee they will not disappoint. Check the photo below for the level of performance they put on even when playing in a shop. Its from their instore in Pure Groove. The gig started with them complaining that they had not been allowed to bring a light show, their response, bring a load of torches and give them to the people in the crowd to swing around for a DIY light show that actually turned out really well. You can see the torches at the front of the photo, below Sam testing Pure Grooves ceiling durability.

Sick like Freddie Mercury in the 80s. Truly.
That is a fuckload of remixes.
I wish I'd seen that in-store you bastard.
Oh and that Hearn St. carpark rave was awesome. Buy this record you bastards! See them live! They're amazing. They'll make you develop Wittmaack-Ekbom's syndrome.
Fuck you. I'm not a fucktard just because I enjoy reading Vice.
