Endor
>> Hold On
>> Say Dirty Recordings
Local 4-piece Endor serve up a lovely wee slice of Scottish pop/rock with their debut single Hold On.
Singing in your local accent has worked wonders for bands like the Arctic Monkeys, Oasis and Bloc Party - but for Scottish folk to try it, an image of ginger-haired twins in glasses usually appears in the mind of the listener. But Endor have managed to pull it off. Elements of relaxed Idlewild shine through, and the hand-claps throughout and clever, though provoking lyrics may even force this lot onto Saturday morning TV one day.
B-side Better/Smarter is another tight, toe-tapping cracker. Go buy it on Cd or limited 7 inch single.
