29 August, 2014: The might British Sea Power do what only they can with foliage, anthems and sheer abandon as the national treasures take to the stage at End Of The Road Festival 2014. Check out our brilliant, exclusive photos of their set here.
“EXCEED THE NATIONAL AVERAGE” - that's the famed motto of indie's most relentless underdogs British Sea Power. It's an agenda that's driven their idiosyncratic approach to rock since the early days and immaculate 2003 debut. It was a time of the indie landfill bilge of Razorlight, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Kooks et al, but amongst it all but under the radar were British Sea Power – fulfilling their motto without bothering the mainstream.
Watching them maniacally dart the stage to the delight of their equally demented cult following is a reminder of one solid gold fact: the joy comes from the fact that Rough Trade have allowed British Sea Power to keep making music, and we're all the richer for it. Here are British Sea Power doing what they do best: forever a cult, but always on form – exceeding the national average. “EAS-EH”
