The Secret History just released a new album The World The Never Was on Le Grand Magistery Records and are touring in support of its cinematic post-pop, which I personally liken as The Smiths with lead vocals by Kirsty MacColl and Dusty Springfield instead of Morrissey.

Check out the video for their single "Johnny Anorak" here and I think you'll agree:

AllMusicGuide recently reviewed the new album, saying: "Not only lives up to My Favorite’s legacy, but surpasses it... not since the first two New Pornographers records have the songs, vocals, and production come together so perfectly. On The World That Never Was, they’ve crafted one of the best, most lyrical, and emotionally powerful pop albums of the past however long."
