It's That Subtle Way You Throw Me Down

Nice and grainy - throwaway camera

I wasn't a massive fan of Bombay Bicycle Club. I saw about 10 minutes of their set at Reading Festival this year with my friends but had to bail after getting fucked in the stomach by a huge indie elbow... & before that i spose i'd never properly listened to their music.
Buuut some friends of ours were supporting them at the 02 in Bristol so i thought it would be a good idea to get into them before we went - nothing worse than standing in a crowd of fans going mental when you dont know any of the words. & After a week of listening to their songs on repeat I AM A FAAAAN.
What makes them cool is that they're normal, (probably a bit geeky school) but that makes them really good at writing songs that pretty much anyone can get, and in a way makes them more hot..?
