ベルファストの デュオ
Confidently side stepping difficult second album syndrome, the record dips a Doc Marten into the realms of goth, grunge and ‘90s power pop. A darker affair compared to their heavenly debut For Your Sins, and sounding all the better for it, the title track is a Banshees-meets-Nancy Wilson-minded joy, while the cinematic, Americana sprinkled, ‘A Rebel Song’ sees them flex their impressive musical muscles.
‘Aisling’ is another standout – driven by the group’s trademark lush harmonies and a rumbling, Simon Gallup-style bassline, it would fit perfectly on the soundtrack to cult ‘90s flick The Craft.
