My favourite new sound at the minute is coming from a fantastic little trio called 'We Have Band' - sounds like a kitsch English punk band with a love of Japlish, but sadly its not, its something a bit more hopeful for my future Ipod playlist.

I thought the comparisons with 'Hot Chip' are a little off the mark, as they certainly have their own unique little identity to them. I can't quite put my mark on where on the electro-rock scale they fall and if I was hastily drawn into making a definition, they would probably fall flat into the centre of 'electro-rock band' or 'rock-electro-band'.

I can't think of too many bands that are happy to throw in bizarre Russian lyrics into their songs (as was the case with the brilliant 'Time After Time' which featured the vocals of Yulia B. and the remixing of Pavel Khvaleev.)

The killer off their upcoming eponymous album (due to be released on the 15th of September) is the amazing 'Hear it in the Cans' which just about sums up the complex dilemma of this rock-electro scaling system in the music industry today. Finally, the song 'Oh!' - exactly as it sounds, will leave you with a feeling of being chased down a large spiral staircase by a floating ghost to this haunting yet subtle melody.

The icing on the cake is their fantastic dub remix of Bloc Party's Halo (kudos to Cannibal Cheerleader.)
