Cherryfalls - For All My Sins
(Island)

www.cherryfalls.co.uk

Released 17/05/04

Cherryfalls describe their music as "melodic" and "anthemic", surely two words to strike the fear of God into the hearts of all sensible music lovers.

It was clutching a stiff drink in our trembling hands, therefore, that we gingerly fed this CD into the temperamental stereo - and at once all our fears were confirmed. It's Coldplay, it's Keane, it's Snow Patrol, it's the latest attempt of an A&R to cash in on that bafflingly popular brand of drippy acoustic-led rock music for the sensitive yet boring young man in your life. "Somebody stop me, somebody kill me," whines the singer. Somebody please take him up on this offer before this frigging single is playing on a loop in Pizza Hut.
