Watching the Delays it’s hard to believe that this band have had two albums released by Rough Trade and are due to have their third which is going to be released by Polydor/Fiction in the forthcoming months.
The band plodded along in a pedestrian manner churning out the singles from their first two albums however, this was marred by the terrible sound which was so excruciatingly loud, it was virtually impossible to decipher anything audible in their incessant din. The lighting also was pretty appalling, well at least for the first three songs, making photographing the band a near impossible task.
The Delay’s have aspirations to be the next “Feeling” or even “Feeder” however based on what I witnessed tonight would very much doubt that they will break through with their next record. I could be wrong however tonight’s performance was pretty dull and in my opinion they lacked lacked any originality.
