AIR TRAFFIC

Hmmm. This band is being lauded as a next Coldplay(!!!) by influential UK DJ, BBC Radio 1's Steve Lamaqc. In his weekly chat with influential US DJ, KCRW's Nic Harcourt, the two were discussing what UK bands can make the large jump across the pond to the States and make a impact. Lamacq said that Air Traffic is probably the best pre-packaged band that is ready to make the jump and that their record company (EMI) won't have to do much to sell them and would really have to screw it up big for them not to succeed. CRAZY! That is a large compliment from Sir Lamacq and I can't really back him up on this. A mix of jingly, piano driven indie rock-pop, it hits a note with the single 'Just Abuse Me' but the other two don't seem in line.
