We like Male Bonding. Quite a bit. Not yet sure if that feeling extends past the boundaries of true love. Lust, sure, but the harder stuff may take a while, contrary to the proclamations of Take That some time in the 1990s. You could have taken so much from our 9/10 review of their debut record, _Nothing Hurts, the review of which can be read here.

They've now got a new video out, for single 'Year's Not Long'. That premiered over on Pitchfork.tv earlier today, but we've gone and borrowed the embed code for it so you can watch it here and Male Bonding get more exposure. Good. Not sure what I make of the video itself. The parties I go to don't ever turn out like that. Maybe I'm going to the wrong ones. Or the RIGHT ones. Anyway, watch it below:
