This is the first release from The Radio
since their debut album Kindness in
2004.
The title track 'Satellite' is an upbeat
tune featuring the signature breathy
female
vocals that characterise their songs.
Gentle
harmonies and a catchy melody layered
over
a punchy beat make this a lovely summer
track.
In places, particularly on their more
subdued
tracks, they sound a lot like American
quirky
rock outfit The Eels, minus the underlying
darkness. The Radio make subtly pretty
songs
and can really shine when they want
to, as
the title track on this EP demonstrates. |
