formerly fear of flying, chiswick newcomers white lies have dipped into the past to give themselves a future. their world is a mid-80's one where the teardrop explodes, echo and the bunnymen and ultravox hold arbitrary sway, hence harry mcveigh's deep, impassioned vocals, echoey guitars and such grave lyrics as unfinished business's 'there's a light in the distance'. this could have all ended in tears for fears, but their winning seriousness is matched by a penchant for a grandiose but hummable melody, most notably on the soaring 'fifty on our foreheads' and the reassuring sense that, music is important after all. the album was recorded at icp studios in brussels during the summer of 2008 with acclaimed producers ed buller (pulp, suede) and max dingel (the killers, glasvegas).
