Exclusive: Late Of The Pier's Cryptic Album Clues

added 16 May 2008 at 10.49

Speaking exclusively to Xfm following their stomping live show at The Great Escape Festival, Late Of The Pier began dropping some rather heavy hints about their forthcoming album title. Could you be the one to work it out?

Time to don your deer-stalker and crack out your best pipe because Xfm are in need of some serious Sherlock-like sleuthing.

Catching up with John Kennedy favourites Late Of The Pier at Xposure's night at The Great Escape, the young band were feeling in a cryptic mood.

Speaking about their forthcoming debut album (which is due out this summer) the band revealed that

1. It's a very short title

2. The initials are "F.B.C."

3. One of the band (drummer Ross Dawson)'s interpretation is that the title means "a television channel full of Afro Carribean's with no clothes on doing extremely rude things".

Hhhmm... chin stroking fodder if ever we heard it.

Reckon you know what the title might be? Let us know your thoughts below.
