You can check out the LP via soundcloud below. Everyone thinks of this group and remembers Come On, Eileen but they did more than that--their first LP, Searching for the Young Soul Rebels, is truly great. Good to have them back. And yes, I know, Kevin Rowland is a cross dresser, who cares?
Dexy's (formerly Dexy's Midnight Runners) have returned. The group not only have a shortened name but a new LP, One Day I'm Going To Soar, coming out September 3, 2013.
