| RADAR: General Info
|
| Member Since | 11/15/2005 | | Band Website | www.7digital.com/artists/radar/first-to-last | | Band Members | BUY 'FIRST TO LAST'
THE SUN
"Darkly atmospheric take on Ska with deadpan Specials vocals
and a
pop sensibility which never sells out its dubby soul. If only Hard-Fi
were half this good." 4.5/5
TIME
OUT
"Fourth
effort from the painfully cool former YoYo residents, whose combined
record
collection clearly favours Beck, Madness, The Specials, Prince Buster,
Simian, Gorillaz,
and, er, Jonah Lewie, whose 'Stop the Cavalry' this recalls, albeit
produced by
Damon Albarn. Bet the Lily Allen demographic are going ga-ga over this
one."
CLASH
MAG
“Radar ooze coolness”
GUARDIAN
“They’re Marley meets Madness and a hint of Kitchen
Sink revisited when they get dark; this is roughly what would happen
sonically
were Ray Davies to feature as a guest member of The Good The Bad &
The
Queen.”
GQ
The band’s talent for combining magnificent rolling
dub and a full-on live show means winning over any crowd is a cinch.”
PLAYLOUDER
“Awesome…Achingly hip.”
SUBBA CULTCHA
“Like
a daydream in Damon Albarn’s balding head, Gorillaz-like characters
skip and
hop along heroin spiked clouds… There’s an alien-like acuteness last
seen in
The Specials, and it’s a refreshing welcome back…”
ROOM 13
" First To Last" goes to show what great things we can expect of this London quartet. It presents a band bursting with vitality, radiance and excellence and it has that special something that you can't quite pinpoint. Conjuring brilliance at a glance, Radar, are definitely worth watching for the future.
