Saw Ocean Colour Scene outdoor at the Hartlepool Tall ships festival last week and I have to say they were bloody brilliant. Forgot how good they were. New album out sounds pretty good! It's like I've found a new band to listen to coz lets face it there's some ste about these days!!
Wasn't aware they'd really gone away? I know their recent album stuff has met with a lot of "it's no Moseley Shoals is it?" type comments - less so the very last one - but they're still awesome live. One of my all time favourite bands.
Maybe I'm a bit out of touch with the music scene of late? I personally hadn't heard much of them, although looking at their biography they've been busy these past few years!
