THE KISSAWAY TRAIL (London Bush Hall, 07/09/09)



The Danish five-piece's propulsive set may have suffered from a lack of variety, but their heavily post-rock-influenced indie rock has an impressively expansive quality that often seemed too epic for the modestly sized Shepherd's Bush venue. But even better were the dark and atmospheric Chimes and Bells, whose moody subterranean female vocals and intense drumming were a far cry from the jollity of many of their Scandinavian contemporaries. And there were free cupcakes. Success!
