The Format - You will all be listening soon

I’m on a music kick this week - I’ll post more designs this week. I’m working on a couple t-shirts to post on the site. For now, you will be told the future. You will all be listening to a band called The Format very soon. There two albums you need to hear, and I’m sure I’ll change my mind from day to day on which is the best one. Dog Problems, and Interventions + Lullibies. I + L is their first studio album, released in 2003 and is great. The opening 3 songs of the album are one of my all time favorite opening 3 songs. Dog Problems, also brilliant is one of those complete albums where to listen to songs out of context does them an injustice - although they are perfectly fine standing on their own.

I am an album purist, so it’s tough for me to recommend a single download. I would say, spend the 3 bucks on iTunes and download the first three songs from either album and make your choice. I doubt you’ll be sorry. My only hope is that they don’t lose their street cred. They are totally pop, so it’s possible. Even still, check them out. I guarantee you’ll be listening soon.
