the funny thing is, you guys are tripping over each other trying to be so much more clever than all of the other idiotic ILM posters, that you look much more idiotic and petty than any actual rock band who makes music, or any actual journalist who fulfills his/her duty to write a story assigned by their editor (being trust funders, you might not understand either of these concepts).

hstencil, that story appeared in the Entertainment section of CNN. Slow news day? It is appropriate content for that section. Now, go act like a condescending asswipe to all of your pathetic minions.

The Departure are Britain's answer to Interpol

The Departure = The British Interpol

New band alert: The Departure are from Northampton, have signed to Parlophone records. Their debut single: All Mapped Out is released on August 2nd.

Sam Harvey – lead guitar
Lee Irons – guitar, backing vocals
Ben Winton – bass
Andy Hobson – drums

The Departure are Parlophone’s latest signings and one of Britain’s most exciting new bands. Destined to appeal to both hearts and minds, theirs is a sound which unites rock’s capricious guitars and funk’s sentient bass with lyrics fated to be scratched into diaries up and down the land.

All Mapped Out, the single reminds me of Interpol and early Echo & the Bunnymen: Crocodiles era.

BBC Berkshire interview The Departure

Rockcity interview The Departure

Mapped Out’ is coming out on August 2nd, the second single we’re aiming to get out in October and then the third single will be in January of next year…
Ben: …with hopefully an album to follow in February.

I think it would be better proof if the article read like this:

Britney Spears insists she’s marrying Kevin Federline for love

NEW YORK (AP) — This time, she’s marrying for love, Britney Spears said of her recent engagement to dancer Kevin Federline.
“ARF ARF... arf arf arf arff,” Spears tells People magazine in its July 12 issue.
“AAAAAARF arf *honk* *honk* *honk*.”
Spears, 22, and Federline, 26, began dating a few months ago, after her Las Vegas wedding to childhood friend Jason Alexander in January. That marriage was annulled 55 hours later.
Of the quickie Vegas ceremony, “*honk* *honk* AAAAAARF,” she says, alternating between juggling a beach ball on her nose and honking bicycle horns. “Arf arf AAAAARF *honk*.”
This is different, says Spears, who’s wearing a five-carat diamond set atop two slender platinum, diamond-encrusted bands on her left finger.
Federline popped the question on an airplane while flying with Spears from Ireland to New York after the European leg of her tour. “I’d known for a while that she’s the one,” he says.
“*honk* *honk* *honk*,” says Spears. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARF.”
Federline, who performed as a backup dancer for Justin Timberlake, Spears’ former boyfriend, previously was involved with Shar Jackson, star of TV’s Moesha.
They have a two-year-old daughter and are expecting another baby.
“*smack* *smack*,” Spears says as she doens a bucket of mackerel. “Arf ARF arf. *smack* *smack* AAAAAARF.”
The singer says she wants children of her own someday.
“I’m not pregnant. (But) I definitely want to have some kids. I see myself with four or five.”
She adds: “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARF.”
