I must admit, I haven't given Sad Day for Puppets enough attention. I remember buying their album a while ago and being very keen on it, but then I kind of forgot about it (what would my mother say! Did she not teach me the value of money? Sorry mum!). It's a good album, quite twee, a bit shoegazing and very indie, and they've got some great melodies. Twee shoegazy-like music can be horrible live (eg The Radio Dept.) or fantastic (Crystal Stilts, that I saw last Friday, blew me away), Sad Day for Puppets are hopefully not all shambolic and nervous. Go and check them out live, and listen to the MP3 below. Unfortunately for all you London haters they're only playing in the capital.
