A working men's club is an association of the working class in parts of Great Britain, Ireland and Australia. The clubs originated in the 19th century and are still regarded today as social gatherings for leisure activities. However, many of the former clubs are now used as cultural and event venues. The Working Men's Club is also a pretty cool synth-pop band from Yorkshire in the UK. With punk influences, the four-piece band moves on open genre definitions. With electronic synthesizers and indie guitars, Working Men's Club deliver a track that creates a mixture of post-punk and synthpop, but also fascinates in the dub mix with bleeps and a great bass line.

I'm very much a fan of this lot. I went to see them live in Glasgow about 12 months ago and thought they were decent enough, although like most synth-led bands, they don't, other than the singer, do all that much moving around on the stage. Oh, and I was annoyed that the t-shirts on sale were all sized up for hipsters and youngsters, and there was nothing close to fitting my rotund frame.
