Heard this quite a bit on Absolute Radio a few months ago:

and quite liked it - sounded like a good band. Then I saw them doing it live on TV (although not at this particular gig):

and thought - where have the rest of them gone? :)
Listening to the track again with knowledge of what you're listening to and you can hear there's only one (bass) guitar plus drums. But I do think it's clever, and original - the White Stripes were also just guitar + drums, but their sound was quite different. He's got a good voice too.
Another more recent track, also getting a lot of airplay on Absolute:

EDIT: sorry 2nd link was wrong, now corrected

I saw Royal Blood last year, they were the support act for the Pixies I saw in Castlefield Bowel (A small 3000 capacity open air venue in Manchester city centre).
I didn't know who they were at the time, we were only interested in the Pixies but they have become very big in the meantime. Liked the stuff I've listened to since.

Castlefield Bowel? Do the specialise in c**p acts?

>> not had my breakfast yet!
Try not getting bowel and bowl mixed up when you have your cereal then.
