Freddie makes sure this site is running smoothly, often working for up to 12 days on end. This is his year’s soundtrack to those coffee and coding nights
Album of the Year…
…Noah and the Whale – First Days of Spring
Takin’ on the haters, Noah and the Whale’s sophomore effort saw them strip back, toy with new instruments, and a running narrative, producing something that drew in the swelling crowd sickened by ’5 Years Time’.
Gig of the Year…
Delphic
…Delphic (w/ Two Door Cinema Club) on the Kitsuné Maison Tour
For bringing their epic brand of ethereal electronica to the masses leaving them collectively stunned and amazed by the sharply dressed gentlemen from Manchester.
Keep and eye out for…
…Two Door Cinema Club
Still relatively under the radar except for those who were blown away by their shows supporting the Delphic tour, but sure to explode in 2010, captivating the general public with their sophisticated blend of programmed electronics and abrasive indie-pop. If you’re looking for an Irish reference they’re better U2.
