Attic Lights

Bring You Down (Island)

By Clarke Geddes • Jun 22nd, 2008 • Category: short players

What with Glasgow’s other best new band getting set to storm into the history books with their doom-pop drenched debut, here The Lights unleash a shot of UV-flecked wonder-pop that sounds like Teenage Fanclub had they spent more time sipping Mojitos and listening to The Byrds. Yet beneath the swarm of contagious harmonies lies a heightened sensitivity that the ‘Lights seem to pull off with ease. Ace, in other words, and further proof summer has finally arrived.

   This is a great song, but I prefer the version of this song from the TBreak 06 CD. Reminds me of the Beach Boys in the best possible way.
