Some people have already labelled the sound to baggy?
"Yeah I don't know why? There's probably some baggy bass
lines and stuff. Apart from that it's like electro-hip hop-rock."
It might be due to 'LSF', that it has slight similarities
to traits of The Happy Mondays. Someone said to me if you
squint while you listen to it you can almost get a Bez from
that. You can see why with the hook but what does LSF actually
mean?
"It's just a file name really. It used to be 'GSF' and
we sent it down to the record company and the G' looked like
an 'L'. They called it 'LSF' and it kind of stuck. That name
though might change for the album."
The fact that the band sound a lot different to what else
is around at the moment is a key strength. You've mentioned
already that you have a vast musical influence, though specifically
can you recall what albums you were listening to when you
recorded your own?
"Again, just everything really. You go to the barn and
look at what records
we've got. It's like a record shop."
Is that a result of your upbringing, you're open minded to
all sorts of music?
"Basically I like what I like, I don't like a certain
genre of music."
Some times your influences are drawn from what your parents
have been listening to while they brought you up, would you
agree?
"Yes. My family is all-musical. They all play instruments
but they never really listened to a lot of music. I was into
music at around eleven, buying records and listening to music.
That's what I liked at the time." >>
