Indie supergroup aims for world record

An indie supergroup that includes The Enemy, Beth Ditto and Paul Weller is aiming to set a chart record, NME reports.

Crisis want to set a world record for the highest number of downloads for a charity single in one day. The group need to sell 5,000 copies of the single 'Consequences' by the end of today (May 2) to make the record books.

Proceeds will go to Crisis, a charity to help the homeless.

"Before everyone goes off for the bank holiday, we want them to think about giving something back and helping us to set this world record," said Crisis ambassador Pearl Lowe.

Supergrass, Graham Coxon and members of Babyshambles and The Smiths all feature in the group.
