Make Her Cry
It’s called ‘Make Her Cry’! And it’s released on Valentine’s Day! That would have been a stroke of evil genius, if the full lyric hadn’t gone “Tell her it’s a lie before you make her cry”. While it’s not the cynical call-to-arms the jilted among us may have hoped for, the Dublin trio’s debut release on Vertigo is, most definitely, one hell of a choon. Its harmonies are imported fresh from California, while frontman Michael John’s vocal style is a more palatable version of the uniqueness that’s championed by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Power pop at its most delectable.
