Dundee's the View announced themselves with "Wasted Little DJs", their debut single, issued on 1965 Records in August 2006 and later tucked onto their first album, Hats Off to the Buskers, in 2007. Kyle Falconer and Kieren Webster wrote it, and it's indie rock that comes in all elbows and adrenaline.
Downloads alone got it to No. 73 on the UK chart before the physical single was even in the shops, and a week later it had jumped to No. 15; at home in Scotland it went all the way to number one. NME ranked it ninth among its top 50 singles of 2006, and it later took Best Track at the NME Awards 2007, voted for by the public. One more detail: the sleeve spelled it "Wasted Little DJ's", and by the time the album arrived that stray apostrophe was gone.
