Hordes are a five-piece based in East London but clearly do not fit in with the shambolic East London Liber-scene. A sort of eighties British neo-pychedelic revival, think A Forest-era Cure and Jesus and Mary Chain partying with Syd Barrett and The Psychedelic Furs celebrating a North London transplant of Battersea Power Station--and Bobby Gillespie's invited type thing. Hordes won the Diesel Music Awards and singer/songwriter Paul Withy is of the Diff'rent Stokes/Diff'rent Stripes EPs fame.
