Digg it

I had not seen the Infadels before so was interested in catching them live supporting Feeder at Koko. The 
band have been on the live circuit for three or four years now however despite continually gigging have failed to get the same level of press of many of their contemporaries. Their latest pop/rock album “Universe in Reverse” was released in June by the achingly trendy Wall of Sound label and was produced by ex Killing Joke bassist Youth, whose previous productions include Depeche Mode, GNR and The Verve’s. The record is certainly accomplished however has failed to make any significant dent in the music press or indeed album charts.
The Infadels are a good live band and their front man Bnann Watts puts on an enthusiastic show however musically they fall in between two camps on one hand their write very accessible pop songs such as the very memorable single “Free things for poor people” and “Code 1″ however most of their other material is much rockier. In my opinion the band have still to find their true direction however when they do could be as big as the Killers or McFly, take your pick!
