The Young Knives have won Channel 4's Road To V competition, and as such opened the Channel 4 stages at the Chelmsford and Stafford V festivals over the weekend. The competition saw C4 and Virgin Mobile sifting through over a thousand unsigned entrants, narrowing it down to six, with only the one, of course, getting to perform at V alongside Doves, Kaiser Chiefs, The Bravery, The Magic Numbers et al. The band signed an album deal with independent label Transgressive, and are currently recording a single, 'The Decision', which is expected to see a release in Nov, with a debut album to follow in 2006.
