The Modern were signed to a major five album deal with Mercury Records and scored a minor hit with debut single 'Jane Falls Down' in 2004. The follow up single 'Industry' was set to chart in the top twenty in February 2005 when the Official Chart Company disqualified the track due to allegations of chart fixing.
This lead to the band losing their record deal and half of their members. Undeterred, Nathan, Emma and Chi changed their name to Matinee Club and managed to score a deal with Planet Clique in the UK and Europa/Universal in mainland Europe once again for five albums.
The band's long-awaited debut 'Modern Industry' was released worldwide on iTunes in December 2007, with a physical release promised during 2008 followed by a digital single release of the fan favourite 'Sometimes'.
The album contains material that is up to four years old and previously performed by The Modern. Fans are relieved to finally have an album after following the band through its changes for a five year period.
In the US, Ninth Wave Records are released a different album entitled 'The Modern LP' containing a different track listing and some bonus remixes in January 2008.
As of June 2008, the physical album release in the UK has not surfaced and neither has the touted single 'Sometimes'. Following news that the Europa subsidiary of Universal being closed down by its parent company, together with feedback from Planet Clique that the label has no further plans to release material by Matinee Club there is no certain future for the band.
The official forum has been devoid of moderator input for several weeks prompting further speculation that the band is winding down.

I managed to get this album a bit hard I must admit, I had to actually ask one of the band members when I saw them live how to get it! On Amazon.co.uk if you search for Matinee Club Modern LP that should bring up the CD if anyone is interested in purchasing it!
