I feel the need to whore up the Plastic Toys here, as today is when their debut album is released. I first came across them 3/4 years ago - I was suppposed to be playing a gig but it fell through, so I headed down to the George instead where some bands were playing. I was blown away by this electro-rock band, got a demo CD, got it signed and spent much of the following weeks with it on 'repeat all' mode.
If there is an album to buy, then it's this one, so go order it, the link's on their official site.
The gig last Thursday was a wake-up call - it is everytime I see the 'Toys play. It's refreshing and makes me push myself as a musician and wonder why I haven't yet got on to doing anything original. Ironically, I got a phone call the next day from my drummer. His twenty something son needs a bassist for some original stuff, so hopefully I'll be able to post some news on that come next weekend as to how first rehearsal goes.
