Both of them, when asked about their roles in the duo, commonly specified them by giving the generic answer of "Vocals, loops and guitars". BiographyFormed in 2002, Johnny Boy took their name from Robert De Niro’s character in Martin Scorsese's film, Mean Streets. Their debut single, "Johnny Boy Theme" featured Scorsese's opening voice-over from the film. Their single "You Are The Generation That Bought More Shoes And You Get What You Deserve" was produced by James Dean Bradfield (of Manic Street Preachers) and achieved critical acclaim.[1][2][3] The single reached #50 in the UK Singles Chart in August 2004.[4] Bradfield also co-produced their debut album, Johnny Boy, which received mixed reviews.[5][6][7][8] Johnny Boy described their sound as "Church bells, boy-girl vocals, loops, twists, warps, walls of sound and edgy guitars combined to rekindle the idea of Sandinista!-era Clash having an, erm, shootout with Phil Spector".{{Citation needed|date=May 2009}} DiscographySingles
