The Strange Death Of Liberal England - Rising Sea Single Review

You've got to love some of the band names out there, take The Strange Death Of Liberal England. What a fantastic name, it's something that stands out, is memorable and far from boring.

'Rising Sea' will be the first single to come from their forthcoming album 'Drown Your Heart Again'. Some have compared TSDOLE with Arcade Fire but really that is probably unfair to both bands. Yes they both have a distinctive sound and an air of familiarity but that's where it ends. Rising Sea shows that The Strange Death Of Liberal England can step up and combine lots of musical pieces to produce a truly wonderful track.

If The Strange Death Of Liberal England can produce more tracks like this and if Rising Sea is a little taste of what the album is made up of, then maybe these guys and gal from Pompey will see some of the success of their Canadian contemporaries. It is all on the album to provide the results we want to hear.
