Drum and bass lines pulsate like the openings of new worlds, a guitar reverberates like a passing star, and The Little Ones introduce themselves to us in humblest grandeur.
Tilly and the Wall know it already, as they've arranged for the Nebraska five-piece to tour with them later this year, but this two-track debut UK release is little short of a revelation for those who don't.
Like Keane with a beating, alternative heart, or New Order with another song, lead track Oh, MJ! is guitar pop at its bittersweet finest, lying in a gutter and etching paths to the stars for a new generation of lovers.
Shimmering melodies with an aching heart, the power of verse flashing through veins like 400 year old wine, and the B-side High On A Hill is not bad either, if you like drop-dead anthems with hope and defiance in every shaky step. A mini-album is slated for release in February, and I'll start mustering my pennies right now.
