British Sea Power

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

A rather conceptual indie band -- one that's been compared more than once to Joy Division -- British Sea Power is a quartet from Brighton, England, comprising members named Hamilton, Noble, Yan, and Wood. Formed in the late 2000, their live shows began to receive notice early on, thanks in no small part to the large stuffed birds that perched on-stage and the militaristic uniforms worn by the bandmembers. Rough Trade's Geoff Travis was taken aback by one of the group's (literally) wild performances and signed them; by the end of 2001, they had two singl...[more]

Do You Like Rock Music? is upon us. It was recorded around the world - with Howard Bilerman (Arcade Fire), Efrim Menuck (God Speed You! Black Emperor) and Graham Sutton (Jarvis Cocker, Bark Psychosis). It's also an album that looks the world squarely in the eye. 'It's our version of Doctor Jekyll And Mr Hyde,' says BSP guitarist Martin Noble. 'It's about cherry wood and Kevlar - about the good and the bad. There are good reasons for anxiety at the moment - but if we're in danger let's address the da   [ read more ]

On 2005's Open Season, British Sea Power traded in some of the chilly post-rock angst that fueled their 2003 debut with a more streamlined, radio-ready approach that left some listeners yearning for the lo-fi majesty of songs like "Carrion" and "Fear of Drowning." Those tunes were still there, but they demanded repeated spins before revealing their fruits, a tactic that the stoic Brighton, England, quartet employs again -- but with far more breathtaking results -- on its third full-length,   [ read more ]

Man Of Aran is a powerful and provocative dramatized documentary from the late American filmmaker Robert J. Flaherty. In a series of startling black and white sequences, the film presents daily life on the inhospitable Aran Islands on the west coast of Ireland. This is the accompanying soundtrack. 'The band has crafted a wintry, nuanced, and bold collection of epic songs that integrate the sweeping theatricality of Arcade Fire-era indie rock without all of the insularity' - All Music.   [ read more ]

{#Man of Aran}, a 1934 docu-drama that chronicled the difficult daily lives of the inhabitants of Western Ireland's remote Aran Islands, boasts all of the elements (wind, water, sky, and barren landscapes) that make a successful British Sea Power song, so it's no revelation that the band's soundtrack for the film fits like a pair of weather-beaten oars in a pair of equally ancient hands. The direct antithesis of 2008's stadium ready Do You Like Rock Music?, the largely instrumental Man of Aran (onl   [ read more ]

Open Season is the second album from British Sea Power and it's an incredible piece of work. it epitomizes everything that is great about pop music right now. Literate, impassioned and full of tunes, it feels like the product of a band who know their time is finally now. British Sea Power have made an album that lies exactly midway between julian casablancas and julian cope - an album with both lustrous pop thrill and ambitious, intelligent rock scale. An album where they sing of girls and guillotine   [ read more ]
