That first album had some great songs "IWE" "Scratch Your Name" etc but now they just sound like everything else. I'm waiting for the inevitable "music snob" accusations but I don't care, they're a boring band now.

Sorry, but I disagree with you. Their new album is absolutely FANTASTIC!
I love Never Forget You, as well as Don't Upset The Rhythm. There are some very fun, catchy, infectious songs.
If no one knew them, I would never have discovered them. They are one of my favourite music of this year - great music discovery.
Music snob - sorry, only joking no offence
NOISETTES RULE!

I did like their older stuff but I'm not fond of their current stuff. I love Nothing To Dread and Don't Give Up.

It's not that they've became big that I went off them. I wasn't really into them anyway. I just liked their earlier stuff better. It was rawer.

Thou shalt not stop liking a band just because they have become popular.....

But anyhow...

I'll be honest I never heard of the Noisettes myself until "Don't Upset The Rhythm" came out. A song which I can now not stand at all. They'll be at a festival I'm going to later in the year, not over enthusiastic about seeing them. That's my point of view.

The fact they've released two songs that could have been by different artists says a lot to me. I liked 'Don't Upset the Rhythm', but I LOVE 'Never Forget You'. Be interested to see what else is out there.

That irritating car advert music? Can't stand it either.
