The View
Wasted Little DJs (2006)

As their website name says, The View are on fire, and they are right because right now they really are. Their first single release hits the charts at number 15 last weekend which is phenomenal for a band that has come from being little known buskers, to well known Indie pop rockers within a matter of months. When I first saw them in February this year, I was taken in by there presence and music straight away, and to see that 6 months down the line they've now made their mark on the music scene with regular plays on Radio 1, with great thanks to Zane Lowes plugging of the band through his session 'mix tapes'.

This debut single really shows what The View are all about, full of youth and energy which you can't help but tap your fingers to and bob your head to. The music is catching and is perfect for the summer time weather. 'Posh Boys' takes influences from the Libertines sound, but with there own originality mixed in to make another great track.

There's not much I can say about this single other than it's going to lead onto even better things, and I really can't wait to upgrade all the demo's that I've got from them with a fully mastered album which I'm sure will be on the way in the next few months. Keep an eye out for such tracks as 'Skag Trendy' and 'Face for the Radio', they look like they're going to big tunes for The View.
