White Water Song

Bell x1

Island

WE SAY

No soundclip today - They're from Ireland, they've already had an album out domestically, and now they're putting their second album out on Island Records in the UK... The U2 comparisons don't end there: this is a really exciting two and half minutes - as exciting as we imagine early U2 singles were - and they sound like they'll be around for years. Great opening line about a jigsaw too.
