The Borderline isn't the right venue. It feels too small for the band who produced an album as good as Checkmate Savage. It is also an example of a venue that has a pillar in front of the stage. That kind of bad planning really bugs me. But this isn't a review of the stage area; this is a review of one of the most exciting British bands of the year.
The Phantom Band are pretty hard to pigeonhole. They don't have a sound that is really like anyone else. There is some krautrock in there, a bit of the Super Furry Animals pop psychedelia and some Beta Band as well. In their rockier moments they are the band that Kasabian think they are, but they are the real deal.
