Originally coming to the attention of the music-watching public back in June when
they graced the Other Stage at Glastonbury as a still-unsigned band, initial signs
for
The Subways weren't too promising. The general consensus was that their
'
blues-fried fuzz-distortion chaos-sex-rock' was just a little basic, a
little too-everybody-else's-muse to make a real impact.
Under two minutes in length, '1am' is their first offering to the god of vinyl
(limited edition clear 7" only, folks) and
this reviewer finds herself
lost for any more comment following a full and frank opening paragraph.
Have your own blues, kids, it's much more edifying.

"when they graced the Other Stage at Glastonbury as a still-unsigned band, initial signs for The Subways weren't too promising"
Maybe you should actually tell the whole story? The Subways were unsigned at glastonbury, but not because they were a crap band but because they had only just started. The intial signs weren't too promising? No, because winning a competition with some of the best bands in the country to play on one of the biggest stages at glastonbury, without a single out, is not promising? Get your head out of your arse

And trust me, they have got a lot of record company interest at the moment.

I saw them at Glastonbury. I was blown away. I was so supprised that they were an unsigned band, and they were well deserving of winning the competition, and also being bumped up to play the Other Stage.
I saw they were playing in Leeds last week so I thought I would check them out. I thought I would get in contact with their manager and ask if I could do an interview with them for a website that I write for, and he got back to me saying that would be fine.
I interviewed them before their gig in Leeds and they were really great people. They even put me on the guestlist for their gig in York a couple of days later, and I went to that and they were just as good. Really lovely people. Fantastic music as well. Such great stage presence. So great in fact, that I'm going down to Exeter (from Leeds) next weekend to see them.
