Another band from Scotland. Cancel The Astronauts come from Edinburgh. They have their entire 8 track collection of 'Demos' available to download. Having listened to the songs I am somewhat impressed by their indie sound (A little like the Good Shoes and Pulp - in their 'Babies' early 90s incarnation, if you want references). The stand out song for me, is the one with the stand out title 'I am the President of Your Fanclub (and last night I followed you home)' - which is a rather fab piece of pop music. The band also have an electronic feel on some songs - 'Intervention' sounds like some early to mid 80s synth pop band. The band lose me a little on songs like this. I prefer it when the band are using their guitars more. So all in all this is a decent set of demos - when it's good it's very good - when it's not so good it's er, not so good. Obviously. Give the songs a download from their website - here. And if you want to cherry pick the best two songs - download these first:Cancel The Astronauts - I am the President of Your Fanclub (and last night I followed you home)
