    Cut-up guitars and string loops. Like Air meets Gary Newman via the Kinks.What the press said about 5:30am: Single of the Month 'Cut from the same cloth as Saint Etienne or even one of those classic crooners who gets pulled from obscurity every now and then to guest on a dance track…..the second single from 53mph is definitely a step forward……5.30am is a modern take on what Scott Walker strove for. Imagine if Lou Reed had been locked in the All Seeing I's studio, and youre halfway there.' Record Collector 'The Singles Bar' – June 2002 'Now putting the phrase "MP3.com" and "bedroom recorded" together usually adds up to "horeshit peddler of the musical variety", luckily however a gem has been uncovered amongst the pedestrian efforts of 99% of MP3.com "contributors"....like the fresh faced, loveable lo-fi Beck of old.'

    Described as 'the best song Pavement never wrote'. John Kennedy's single of the week xfm. What the press said about Ivory Coast: 'FGR…adhering to one basic, yet sincere mission statement: "To put out good songs." It's working. 53MPH's unshakeable post-Brit pop harmonies on "Ivory Coast" have already been championed by XFM and applied to Sky Sports footie bulletins' Dazed and Confused '53mph delivers a particular brand of crisp, well-thought-out rock that draws equally on American and British influences…..the A-side sounds both like the Kinks and some sort of Pavement off shoot.' Record Collector 'The Singles Bar' September 2001 'You know when you hear something and it gets so stuck in your head its almost impossible not to hear it anymore? Well the a-side of this record is one of those songs. Sounding like the best Pavement song Pavement never recorded…' Strange Fruit www.strange-fruit.co.uk 'Its everything Blur tried and failed to achieve in their Pavement Phase' Josh Rinkoff Rocksbackpages.com

    A 3 minute fusion of break-beats, guitars and Stephen Malkmus style vocals. Like the lovable lo-fi Beck of old.
