Listening to: White Lies
Formerly known as Fear of Flying, these guys released their debut album To Lose My Life… in January, and they have already received much well-deserved praise for their efforts. It is more than obvious that these guys share their influences, such as for instance Joy Division, with other Brit-rock bands that are currently enjoying the spotlight, but White Lies takes the grandiose sound that Glasvegas became popular with last year, tunes it down a notch and lends prominence to other elements to create a more diverse sound.

I used to listen to them back when they were called “Fear of Flying”, I think they just pulled an AIG and renamed the company to get a new shot at pushing an album out.
Turned out pretty damn good!
Hmm, looks pretty interesting, might have to check it out.
