Club NME Southampton: Saturday 16th August

10 Years Later....

2004 was a ridiculously good year for indie, and throughout August we'll be celebrating some of the best albums from that year, 10 years after their release! Every week we'll pit two classics against each other, with our DJs playing the best tracks head to head to find your favourite! We'll also be offering an exclusive VIP prize pack (including a £50 bar tab!) each week, to have a chance of winning all you need to do is vote for your favourite album from that week!

► This week:

Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand " From their razor-sharp suits to Alex Kapranos’s cutting snarl, Franz Ferdinand were a band who meant business. Their self-titled debut can be held solely responsible for the popularisation of the term ‘angular’ to describe guitar riffs. It got NME writer Anthony Thornton all of a dither, labelling it 'the album that’s going kick open the door for all the great British bands.' "

VS

Razorlight - Up All Night " Razorlight’s debut ‘Up All Night’ was everything that indie was waiting for: big tunes, big hair and even bigger egos. Tim Jonze approved, saying "they cut out the dross and squeeze other bands' back catalogues into three-minute bursts of ampheta-pop." Ampheta Pop? A new genre is born. "
