Bell X1 - 'Snakes & Snakes' (Island)
3/5
By: Toby L
More Irish-originating, jangle-space-rock from the still relatively unknown Bell X1, who - after a quietly impressive debut-LP earlier this year - you'd have held down for some form of notoriety above mere, toilet-circuit status...
But not yet. Glorious guitars, cutesy boyish vox, a haunting strings/piano breakdown and a well-penned ode to the star-gazing mystique of up yonder (... 'I need a smile like an angel'...), and still few signs of a hit. Loveable, though - just try and oppose.
