‘Eve…The Apple of my Eye’ released
on 14th June 2004, through Island Records.
Bell X1 made an album last year that
has driven people to change their life, hang from the rafters
at huge sold out
gigs, taken them to Gold in Ireland, had an invite from Damien
Rice (he used to be in the band) to play with him at the
Beacon Theatre in New York, and a personal invite from Keane
to support them on their sold out UK tour. Bell X1 are Ireland’s
hottest exports of the moment.
They should be. Full of rich, touching, beautiful songs,
their Belly world is magnetic; a confused world of heartache,
practical jokes, and a charismatic lead singer, Paul Noonan,
who is pensive, emotionally fragile and has a degree in computer
engineering.
‘Eve…The Apple Of My Eye’ is a classic
song taken from their album ‘Music In Mouth’,
which was released last year to reactions such as NME ‘..out
of the ordinary, a world of fucked-up love and drunken promises..This
is rock with gusto and drive and confidence. Radiohead as
Radiohead should sound now’, TIMES CULTURE ‘Bell
X1 are magic’, MOJO ‘Enormously impressive and
wildly moving’, Q ‘…almighty’, and
is now being talked about all over the world.
They will be doing a headline tour in June, details to follow.
As a critic has already said when
they were nominated for the equivalent of the Brits in
Ireland, the Meteor Awards, “Fuck
nominated, Bell X1 should be prescribed.”
