Every now and then, a song comes on the radio by a band or artist that you’ve never heard of, it stops you in your tracks, you’re captured by this sound, it has a hold on you and you just need to hear it again.

Death by White Lies sounds just brilliant.

The first track on their To Lose A Life album is something which is beautifully warm, soothing and will manage the crowd listening to it live, belt out any stress, worry or just simple negtivity that inhibits their lives. It is a true and theraputic record. The rest of the album isn’t too bad either you know.

There is a powerful essence of Morrissey except it doesn’t bore me to the point where I wish to take myself out to the nearest, sharp implement and introduce it to my jugula.

Fairwell To The Fairground is another lovely yet moody but still an upbeat number. After all of the festivals they attended last year, it’s a surprise to me if you’ve not yet heard of them.

The White Lies are a band I am looking forward to hearing again.
