The Catcher's album 'Mute' is terrific. I think B&S fans would fancy the atmosphere of their music. I recall an article comparing them to the Cranberries a few years ago. Other than the fact they're both Irish and play somewhat jangly guitar pop, I don't quite see the connection. The lyrics are quite different from the Cranberries. In my opinion, their music is somewhat reminiscient of mid-80s REM. Other than the new single, the only releases I know of is the album 'Mute' and the EP 'Shifting' (which might be a promo, not an official release). Sam
i really think that they are just the sort of band that a lot of belle and sebastian people will like. Dale's songs are so gooood, and just keep getting better every time i see them. He used write poetry, literally, in format, style and vocab, but now they are getting a bit rockier. They've been around for a while now, i know they started when dale was doing his a levels, which he told me he dropped three months before his exams for the music. errm he's around 26 now i think , so that's... errm, 8 years, i might be wrong though, they always tell me and i always forget. they've got a beautiful abum out called MUTE and you can get that and the new single, Call Her Name from setanta :
