Manchester based art rock / pop machines Dutch Uncles have released two albums (2009, 2011) and are currently working on their third. They are a rare beast in that they are able to write amazingly focussed and constructed pop songs without resorting to dull clichés and a recycling of the same old ideas. Edgy yet completely accessible. Smart, yet totally danceable. Their late night slot at The Hop is going to be one of the highlights of Long Division 2012; a full on dance off to odd time signatures and swirling, turning chorus hooks.
