For a debut single OK have certainly delved into the deep end with 'Tell The World' that sounds like Morrissey on the most spectacular trip and out of his meat-free mind. Claiming that they sound like The Housemartins it's quite clear where this comparison derives from as they bash out a similarly rag tag sound of jangle-pop featuring the deep toned vocals and the same lets all sing together to show the camaraderie spirit.

'Tell The World' sounds not all to dissimilar to early Libertines in the way the guitar finds that squealing trampy sound. B-side tracks 'Wishing Well' and 'I Don't Know' also conjure up the spirit of Barat and Co. with that quite delectable little plucked guitar and Smiths-ian vibe especially on 'Wishing Well' whilst 'I Don't Know' batters along at a doo-wop fashion.

A corker of a debut single I reckon and a band we should all be keeping an eye on.
