These New Puritans

I spend a lot of time going to see bands and really its not their outfits that I'm paying attention to but it is nice when a band are very good as well as being very stylish. Not the Marine and the Diamonds'over the top I'm trying too hard stylish' but just naturally immensely cool. These New Puritans are just that sort of band. After seeing them play Electric Picnic a couple of years ago I was well impressed. Can you imagine wearing that chain top thing at a festival?Well done sir
Of course other people have noticed their brilliance, Hedi Slimane to be exact. They've written music for his Dior Homme shows. Watch this video its really very good.

They really are just effortlessly cool - there's a great interview with them in the new Dazed this month.

I think I was at that Ep gig too! I've only heard a bit of the new album on bbc6 music, it's pretty out there. It's kinda scary.
