Irish Alt Rockers' fifth album...
I own three from memory and maybe a compilation....
good band....
not great, but consistant enough for me,
much like Kings Of Leon/Imagine Dragons/Band Of HOrses/MMJ...consistant quality....
so five singles and not one of them is my favourite track on here, but one of them is my
least liked track....
fifth single released from it wasn't even released until 2013 when it was released to promote
the best of set from that year...strange indeed IMO...
I hear hints of U2, well The Edge's guitar style on some of the songs so his influence was
bound to be there as these guys probably grew up idolising U2 being Irish...
but at least the influence isn't overbearing because im not a an of Bono and the lads...
all up, another good album by this solid band...
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
