Storyfold don’t waste anytime hooking you into their debut album ‘Rocket Science’. ‘Ciara, Don’t Be Angry’ starts proceedings with a catchy driving bassline before Paddy McKenna’s vocals kick in. By the chorus, the band have introduced the listener to all the trademarks of their sound, solid drumming and bass, and clever guitar lines. What sets them apart though is their use of keys and Lindsey Hogan’s harmonies.
Track two on the album though, has Lindsey on lead vocals and the exchange of lead vocals on ‘The Sweetest Silence’ works really well, reminding this listener of the vocal exchange between Simon Carmody & Maria McKee on The Golden Horde’s ‘Friends in Time’.
The album was produced by Greg Havers (Manics, Lost Prophets) and the band’s songs are complimented by his lush production, building up tracks beautifully and including what can only be described as gorgeous string arrangements. The Dublin based quintet have been together for just over a year and seem to have been recording and demoing since their inception. They write memorable songs and cross genres which makes them extremely marketable. They are indie rock but these productions make their sound huge and fit for bigger stages. (more…)
