Tonight's category: Uk bands beginning with 'The'.

Two Doors Down
The Mystery Jets

Sure, the beginning of this song sounds a little like a TV ad for breakfast cereal, but it by the time the first verse is over and the sax crimes begin, it's a nifty little song. If this was a cereal however, it would be masquerading as a family friendly healthy treat, but in reality it's way too sugary sweet to be good for you.

Shut Up And Let Me Go
The Ting Tings

If this song was a cereal, it would be a) The apparent next big thing according to the advertisers, and b) something that all the hip indie kids would have for breakfast. I'm kind of thinking that means 'nothing', but for argument's sake lets say coco pops. With fruitloops, just to make it different. And yogurt.

No Social
The Shortwave Set

To me, this song wouldn't be a cereal. But if it had to be some kind of breakfast meal, it would probably be like taking all the left overs in the fridge and turning them into some kind of crazy big breakfast hybrid that somehow contains equal parts indian, pasta, german smallgoods, pre-made salad, champagne and birthday cake. Naturally, this is a good thing.
