Single handeldy restoring our faith in British guitar music, to say that British Sea Power have come up trumps with their third album Do You Like Rock Music? would be a slight understatement. Rich Hughes even slated it for album of the year in his review from a few weeks back. The band are currently on tour in the UK and Europe followed by a month long treck across North America. Jacob Saunders headed on down to Oxford last night to catch the band play an astonishing set at the Academy.
