Having been lucky enough to secure an advance copy of 'Tourist History' I was quite interested to hear what all of the 'hype' was about and more interestingly, if it was worthwhile.
To keep it short and sweet - it is worth the wait and the hype.
It will not win 'album of the year' but is a good example of modern 'indie' pop if I am allowed to use 'indie' and 'pop' in the same sentence.
10 very catchy and melodic tracks and you can pick up some 'influences' but I have promised myself that I will not compare bands as it annoys me when new bands are stuck with unfair comparisons early in their career.
With this and the albums from White Rabbits and Los Campesinos it has been a canny start to 2010 - hope it continues!
Well done lads!

I listen to this in my car and unlike most albums I don't need to skip any tracks to get to a good song. Every song on this is a single waiting to happen. Before buying I went to their myspace site and listned to the complete album free so I knew I wasn't wasting my money. GREAT FIRST ALBUM.

Feel Good Pop
It would be easy for me as a one time 90s indie kid to 21st century middle aged bloke to be cynical and rather dull about this album, like some of my sort can be about new bands. Read more
