Idlewild

Rating:

WHAT'S THE DEAL? Scottish folk rockers further explore their Michael Stipe infatuations and end up floundering in Snow Patrol blandness. Well, just a bit, then.

TO BE HONEST: Chiming guitars, anthemic choruses and FM-embracing harmonies battle stubbornly with glimpses of the band's thrashier, riff-laden past, producing an indie mish-mash that's inconsistently astounding. If that makes sense.

LISTEN OUT FOR: 'Too Long Awake'. A big, powerful surge of sweet, sweet melancholia.

PLAY: Because their take on Americana is a tad more interesting than The Thrills.
