Hi all,

So after lead single Best Of Friends was named NME's best track of 2012 the British music press have been fawning over this band.

180 is a pretty good album but it's no Turn On The Bright Lights for example.

Can you give any examples of bands who were tipped to be the NEXT BIG THING and never pulled it off, releasing mediocre music and retreating into obscurity?

Let the debate begin!
