"Peace & Quiet" was the first official release from the British indie rock band The Rifles. It was released only on 7" by Blow Up Records and was limited to only 1000 copies. Upon hearing a demo of "Peace & Quiet" in late 2004, BBC Radio 1 host Zane Lowe immediately invited The Rifles to the Radio 1 studios to record a session, which aired in December of that year.[1]
