Circuits - City Of Light/Before It's Over

Hmmm. Jangly, new-wave nodding Britpop guitars? Yep. Head-nodability? Yep. Politically-'aware' lyrics about Parisian riots? D'oh!

"Circuits ... could conquer stadiums and save rainforests" said The Guardian. "Why The Police didn't need to reform", said Music Week. Yes, kids, this is a band that WANTS to be Sting, and on only their sixth (seventh? sixth and seventh? How do double A-sides count?) single(s), and no album to speak of. Shame, shame on them.

They're very listenable. They're very radio friendly. They want to take over the music world with their 'knowingly compromised 21st century conscience". Don't you just hate them already?
