Why are they here?
It was only a matter of months ago that we were struggling to think of any promising up and coming acts; but now time's have changed and we have struck on a mine of underground talent (many examples already talked about in this blog) with New York's The Pains of Being Pure at Heart now being one of the front runners for our hopes and dreams in late 2008 and beyond. They make the sort of beautiful shoegaze indie-pop that soundtracked many young lives in the 1980's and early 90's and they're sure to win your hearts in an instant. We'll be going all out to bring them to Wrexham in the near future but in the meantime you should catch them on tour with The Wedding Present towards the end of this year.
