Once upon a time there was a very clever man named Lawrence (that’s him in the middle above), who abandoned his perfectly formed & chic indie band Felt and formed a group called Denim.

Denim, with their perfect pop logo as displayed in the video below (ideal to be sewed on your jacket) made perfect pop records to match that were 10 years or more out of date. And every single one of them was a perfect tribute to a pop culture past.

When the rest of the world went Britpop crazy, Lawrence went Glam and his records Back In Denim & Denim On Ice duly did very badly. Although it might please him mildly in retrospect that his songs turn up on iTunes 70s Rock compilations. As if irony had never happened.

BUT they did spawn Middle of the Road
 

The absolute classic diss of everybody & everything.

So if this Thursday you are down on the world and feel like striking back why don’t you give it a rattle and empathise.
