Not the execution of

but indeed, Thee Execution Of...

Yes, I caught this band on Tuesday last week (1.6.04) at the Pleasure Unit on Bethnal Green Road, East London. And they were not aware of the Rilo Kiley song when they named their band.

Thee Execution Of features Andy James previously of Age Baby, and Phoebe previously of Leizel (scroll down) and Olivia Honey and probably a bunch of other bands. These guys are friends of Kevin and play a 50's tinged fuzz box rock'n'roll. It isn't a million miles away from the Jesus and Mary Chain, and sounds pretty darn decent on cd and live.

I don't know much about what they're up to (if anyone knows, comment away below) but if they are around your way, check 'em out.
