Revere - Hey! Selim - anyone heard it?
So some of you will have noticed me talk about this band Revere a lot, they're one of my favourite bands and after a few years of effort they have finally released their debut album Hey! Selim. Seems to be getting very positive reviews so far, although not as widely covered by the press as I'd hoped. Anyone know if DiS plans to review it?
They are often compared to Arcade Fire, a bit of a lazy comparison although understandable due to the instrumentation of the band. I'm not great at describing how they sound, but think post rock with Jeff Buckley type vocals, and a bunch of other influences like gypsy marches & film scores.
Anyway, I know a few people on here have enjoyed seeing them live and just thought I'd flag up that the album is now out. Have a listen on Spotify here http://open.spotify.com/album/6fmGv6KNLIspbRrJZI8S5H - keen to hear what people think!
