Release Notes                                               
The Maccabees are a British indie band from Brighton.             
Their debut single, \'X-Ray\', was released on Promise records on   
28th November 2005, and received some evening play on London radio 
station Xfm London. They received little exposure until they       
released their second single, \'Latchmere\', on Fierce Panda Records 
some 6 months later in April 2006. This was championed by Radio 1 
DJ Steve Lamacq and received airtime on MTV2. The video, directed 
by Hugh Frost and Samuel Bebbington, also proved an internet hit   
after it was posted on YouTube.                                   
In mid-2006, influential music magazine NME gave the band some     
extremely favourable press, including a review of their now       
infamous headline show at Cafe de Paris in London, where the       
magazine called the band "The best new band in Britain".           
In November 2006 the band toured with Fields, Forward, Russia!,   
and Wolfmother as part of the MTV2 spanking new music promotion.   
Drummer, Robert Dylan Thomas was replaced by session drummer,     
Elliott Andrews, for this tour as he broke his arm just before the 
band were due to begin touring. Also in November 2006, the band   
released their third single \'First Love\', which charted at #40.   
The band are now signed to Fiction Records, and are currently     
working on their debut album, due early 2007.
