Listen: Download alternative version of Los Campesinos' 'Romance Is Boring'
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater July 5th, 2010

It's been a while since we've heard much from Los Campesinos!. Probably because they've been doing their usual thing of touring like mad around this country and many others. That's why it was a nice surprise when something new from them came up this morning.

It's not anything particularly fresh, but rather an alternative/different version of the lead single and title track from their current album Romance Is Boring. It's called the 'Princess version', apparently. It's a lot more measured and, also a little bit woozy to start off with but you soon get into it once it reaches full flow. Good for a day like today. Especially if you've spent most of the week(end) wilting in the sun.

Anyway, you can get the track for yourself by clicking here. It's pretty good. And more than just a remix.

The 'gang' are doing the festival circuit at the moment, but they do also play a special Wichita 10th anniversary show in the next couple of weeks at London's Garage, along with a whole lot of other dates. Check them out here:

10/7 - Bilbao, BBK Live
15/7 - London, Wichita 10th Birthday @ The Garage
16/7 - Belgium, Dour Festival
17/7 - Nijmegen, Festival de-Affaire
18/7 - Normandy, Festival Chaufeer dans la Noirceaur
25/7 - Oxfordshire, Truck Festival
28/7 - Porto, Paredes de Coura Festival
30/7 - Cardiff, Big Weekend
31/7 - Derbyshire, YNOT Festival
1/8 - London, Underage Festival
15/8 - Leicester, Summer Sundae
28/8 - Leeds, Festival
29/8 - Reading, Festival
