Bell X1 - Alphabet Soup

Posted Image

Seemingly lost in the swathe of praise going to the overrated Thrills, Bell X1 go for a similar concoction of rock, folk, country and Celtic, that can make for addictive listening, when done properly. And the two tracks on this promo, 'Alphabet Soup' and 'Like I Love You' have been done properly.

Whereas, 'Alphabet Soup' is country fried pop, perfectly formed, 'Like I Love You' heads off into outer space, with a dreamy arrangement. It's all very summery, very laid back, but concealing hidden strengths. Ignore the fact that the NME liked them, for they are actually quite remarkable.
