We had an excellent start to the day this morning at tQ HQ, playing this video for Real Lies’ ‘Deeper’, off the first of three double A-side singles they’ll be releasing on Sweet Exile. As tQ editor Luke Turner says, it’s prime Pet Shop Geezers, the sound of lads who listen to pirate radio making soulful London pop music.
The video was posted on i-D‘s website, with the band telling the magazine: "[It’s] a confessional monologue about trying to recreate going on holiday in London… Have we tried it? Yeah, we’ve been doing it for the last three years! When the sun comes out in London there’s no better place."
Stay tuned to the site for more coverage of Real Lies.
