I was reviewing Tricky Ricky's (of Panic Manual fame) music collection just recently and came across a Long Blondes collection called Singles. Singles? The band has only released 2 CDs and they have a greatest hits collection? I did some investigation and have discovered that this is their first record label Angular Recording Corporation putting out a compilation of early, pre-Rough Trade singles. The CD includes the A & B-sides of our first four singles, and some bonus tracks. Sounds exciting.
Unfortunately, I also discovered that the band has called it quits too. Dorian, one of the members of the band, had a stroke in June and does not know when he will be well enough to play guitar again. Official news was on their website as of October 19, 2008.
Here is the bands last single which was released in June called Guilt and was taken from their second and maybe final album Couples released on Rough Trade Records.
Great band and a sad day for Pop Music.
