Drowned In Sound just announced that Eugene McGuinness, the promising Liverpudlian singer/songwriter, is to open the DiS stage at Great Escape festival in Brighton & as I am going to this particular event it re-kindled my love for this, one of my favorite releases of last year. Eugene takes the stereotypical singer/songwriter formula and turns it on it's head with tongue in cheek lyrics, great roll of the tongue delivery and some sweet melodies which can both make one happy and energetic and one to pluck a heart string or two.
The mini album as it's put has absolutely no filler & is pretty much consistently great... the are allot of memorable moments here to make it one of my favourite albums of last year & I hope people check it out the below video is not to be taken as absolute judgement of this offering as allot of the tracks are much slower paced then this, though the are a couple more such as the brilliant 'High Score' and 'Child Lost In Tesco' which takes on a similar guise.
