With a title like that I'd better watch what I say here! No worries though, as this album from an Irish band with a quickly growing fanbase rocks and it's not everyday you hear a cello on a rock CD! Well produced, clear lyrics, good musos and differing styles - it's all here and keeps your interest throughout. The singer, it has to be said, sounds better when blasting out than in the quieter moments in my opinion, but that doesn't make him bad, he just suits emo-charged singing better. The second track (after the intro anyway) reminds me of The Police, which is no bad thing as I regard them as one of the best UK bands ever. The band are getting around a bit, touring with Superhero and have played at Flevo this summer. They are tight and tuneful and I think this four-song EP is a brilliant precursor to a full length album, which hopefully won't be too far away.

Hi!
I can't find this EP anywhere. Could anyone at least send the mp3s my way?
