He had noted that Paul was less concerned with the products and wanted to be a credible musician, to which Gene fired back that credibility is fleeting, it can be gone the next day, but you can’t argue with the figures of a business. That’s exactly what they are: a business, a brand. They’re fantastic musicians – credible musicians in fact, but damn they’re fronting one of the best music brands in existence. Not only are they focussed on their music and on their fans, they’ve managed to make themselves a sustainable business alongside it.

Following last year’s acclaimed D, White Denim return as they release in proper Last Day of Summer, a collection of songs written since the band’s formation in 2006 and recorded over one frantic month. Previously put out as a free download on the band’s website in September 2010 following label problems, the album drew me back time and again and is well worth that hard earned tenner. “It represented a final opportunity to make a record in our own space on our own terms.” said singer James Petralli’s. “We were fully aware that because of typical recording industry practices, this record would have little to no chance of receiving a typical release. With that truth in our minds, we resolved ourselves to completing Last Day of Summer in one month. After the completion of the record we all planned to go out and get day jobs, the band once again becoming a weekend project.”
