Faces of 2010 - We Cut Corners

Our very own Alan O’Reilly was suitably impressed when he caught We Cut Corners supporting Joan as Policewoman last October. ‘These guys are definitely ones to watch,’ he said at the time and now we’re making that statement official. Being a guitar/drums duo has inevitably lead to comparisons with the White Stripes, which may seem unfair on that basis alone. But if there’s one thing they do share with Jack and Meg it’s the ability to write a catchy tune. Mix that up with all that’s good about Midlake and Bright Eyes, then add in a personality that’s all their own and you have the making of something quite special.

    Yeah, saw em at Hard Working Class Heroes. Quite liked it.
    The drummer doesn’t half love himself though!

    Was at that HWCH show in Andrew’s Lane. Very strong set. Didn’t detect any auto-erotic tendencies from the band though..

    Heaven forefend, an artist with a self-fondness. How unusual!?

    Very good band.
