• Ok, let’s get into our Biggest Record In The UK
• And this week it is from the marvellous - The Maccabees
• Basically it’s the first taster of their new album, due out this year
• They actually finished it a year ago but wanted to make sure it was absolutely perfect before putting it out!
• They have put out a video online that provides a cryptic clue as to what the new album will be called, see if you can work out what it is at: themaccabees.co.uk
• Such a brilliant live band - the vibrancy and excitement of a really tight indie band but with a really poetic edge to them.
• They are a wonderful band, we’re so glad to have them back.
