The Campesinos ! History
History
Formation and signing to Wichita: 2006
The group came together at Cardiff University in 2006, originally consisting of Neil on guitar, Ellen on bass guitar, and Ollie on drums. In March 2006, Tom joined the band, assuming the role of lead guitarist and songwriter, later followed by Gareth on vocals and glockenspiel, Harriet on violin and keyboard, and finally Aleksandra on vocals, keyboards, and melody horn. According to Tom, he met Neil after overhearing him discussing Sufjan Stevens at a club. The band's earliest compositions were long pieces in the style of "post-rock," though no recordings from this era are known to circulate publicly. The word campesino in Spanish translates to "peasant" or "country person."
The band performed their first gig on 8 May 2006 at a student union club night; they went on to play a number of increasingly well-received gigs around Cardiff. An early demo was recorded featuring the songs "Death To Los Campesinos!", "It Started With A Mixx", "Sweet Dreams Sweet Cheeks", and live favourite "You! Me! Dancing!". The songs were posted on the Internet, bolstering the popularity established by their energetic live shows and earning them airplay on Beth & Huw's evening show on BBC Radio 1 Wales. The band's reputation continued to grow, and in August 2006 landed them a slot supporting Canadian supergroup Broken Social Scene.

The Strokes - Reptilia
"Tell us a story
I know you're not boring"
I was afraid that you would not insist.
"You sound so sleepy
just take this, now leave me"
I said please don't slow me down
If I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town...
Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road,
The wait is over
I'm now taking over,
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough.
Now every time that I look at myself
"I thought I told you
this world is not for you"
The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
"you sound so angry
just calm down, you found me"
I said please don't slow me down
If I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town...
Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road,
The wait is over
I'm now taking over,
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough.

Dictionary - The Go Find
They seem to come out so slow
You're an dictionary w/o an ending
The book that I like to read
Cause you are always in-between lies
We don't want to be a part of what you're up to
so what are you? You're the good stuff
but we don't bother anymore so please just let us
There's something in the way that your stories break me
I feel that i really understand
You're a dream that i would like to sleep through
the page that i don't want to turn
Cause you are always in-between lies
We don't want to be a part of what you're up to
so what are you? You're the good stuff
but we don't bother anymore so please just let us out
What are you? You're the good stuff
We don't want to be a part of what you're up to

Pogo
Now where has it been?
I mean the good old wild days,
Became a bit too lame.
Just take a look at my place.
It's such a mess,
But I'll be outta this space as soon as you tell me where the night is.
You have to set up.
Bring it on!
Forward!
Yeah, wah-ohh,
There's something in the air.
Wah-ohh,
There's something in the air.
Yeah, wah-ohh,
There's something in the air.
It's been quite of a while since I could experience your brightness.
Now you've got a brighter smile and I think I'm going to like it.
Talking 'bout the better things, you know how to maximize.
Everything around you will become supersized.
You have to set up,
Away from,
What matters,
And get it prepared.
Forward!
Yeah, wah-ohh
There's something in the air.
Wah-ohh,
There's something in the air.
Yeah, wah-ohh,
There's something in the air.
Yeah, wah-ohh,
There's something in the air,
Wah-ohh.
'Cause I've been dreaming we could be the fire for this night.
Can't stop!
You have to set up.
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Bring it on)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Forward)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Set Up)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(You have to set up)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Bring it on)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Forward)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(Set Up)
We could get so wasted if you would have come.
(You have to set up)
