New music: 'Sex EP Remixes' by The 1975

Fresh from the hotly-tipped and probably over-hyped Manchester band The 1975, you can grab this set of remixes for free (or rather in exchange for your email address above). Pick of the bunch is probably the Ryan Hemsworth mix of 'Sex'.

I saw The 1975 live a couple of weeks ago (at Chinnerys in Southend) and they seem to have two distinct sets of songs - the ones they want to write, and the ones their management/label have told them to write to break them into the big time. It remains to be seen whether this will work, and if they'll sell their souls in the process, but I think that somewhere inside the polished exterior there's a decent band trying to get out.
