Current rules of engagement don’t allow joint single of the fortnight status, but under any other circumstances Los Campesinos! would be right up there. Similarly, the plethora of exclamation marks should set alarm bells ringing, yet the Welsh seven piece are all about doing things their own way (the intro to the first track here is virtually as long as the entire second song). The whole thing fizzes with youthful exuberance (‘It Started With A Mixx’ takes pot shots at the very scene that spawned them) and a musical outlook that belies those tender years. Single of the Fortnight II, just don’t tell anyone
