So Solid: the return?



UK garage crew So Solid are back.

Ten years ago this impossibly large London collective started permeating the garage scene with hit after hit: 'Oh No' (I'm talking the original mix), '21 Seconds' and - don't cringe - 'Bound 4 da Reload'.

Now they've returned with a new single, 'Since You Went Away', which hits the charts in January.

'I feel like a gifted brother. Not a lot of people get a second chance,' says Mega Man in the intro to this (dare I say it) catchy RnB track, co-starring Lisa Maffia and Romeo. It seems the crew are hedging their bets elsewhere for this one though, with a video that couldn't be more US-try-hard if it, er, tried.

Still, it's nice to hear Mega's smooth tones again - even if this is a bit pop for my tastes.

Make your own mind up:
