Frankie & The Heartstrings - Tender (video)

Here's the brand spanking new video from Sunderland's finest popsters, Frankie & The Heartstrings for their latest single "Tender". A rather awesome tune to match the band's rather awesome barnets, 2010 should be a damn good year for The Heartstings, possibly the best new British band around right now.. I can imagine a million and one Blur fans getting in a huff over F&THs stealing "their band"'s song title. The single, released today, is limited to 888 7" vinyls. I pre-ordered mine, what's your excuse?

Sincerest apologies

I've been neglecting the blog for quite some time now. 64 days to be precise. Stuff gets in the way; uni, work, life etc. But I shall neglect no longer! Or at least neglect a bit less.

Anyways, it's pointless now but the top four songs of 2009 were:

1. YEASAYER - Ambling Alp
2. FRANKIE & THE HEARTSTRINGS - Fragile
3. THE DRUMS - Let's Go Surfing
4. THE BIG PINK - Velvet

Whilst the top ten albums were:

1. NOAH AND THE WHALE - The First Days Of Spring
2. MANIC STREET PREACHERS - Journal For Plague Lovers
3. THE xx - xx
4. THE BIG PINK - A Brief History Of Love
5. THE HORRORS - Primary Colours
6. THE MACCABEES - Wall Of Arms
7. JAMIE T - Kings & Queens
8. MAXIMO PARK - Quicken The Heart
9. WILD BEASTS - Two Dancers
10. ARCTIC MONKEYS - Humbug

And that's that. I'm going to see Wild Beasts and Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip in the next few days, so there'll be live reviews up for them soon, and I'll probably revamp the whole look of the blog.
