The Devlins - Waveshttp://www.notlame.com/CDDEVLINS1.htmlThe Devlins - WavesThe Devlins - WavesThe Devlins` fourth full-length is designed for lovesick dreamers. Is it any wonder their music has been popping up in such dark-tinged productions as HBO`s Six Feet Under ("Waiting") or Mike Nichols` Oscar-nominated Closer ("World Outside," also from 1997s Waiting)? As Colin Devlin sings in "Someday," "Someday you`ll find your place in time." A similar sense of longing permeates the entire moody, melodic enterprise. Colin, who also handles guitar duties, is joined by brother Peter on bass and Guy Rickarby on drums. Based in Dublin, the Devlins don`t sound like any other Irish group that comes to mind (although they do resemble a few Scottish ones, like the Blue Nile ). At times on Waves, however, they evoke another notable sibling duo, New Zealand`s Finn Brothers (Neil and Tim from Split Enz and Crowded House), but their sound is smoother, more subdued. Waves was engineered by Danton Supple of Coldplay fame. <p> "The sound fall in line with a number of similar guitar-pop duo records released in the past few years with the Finn Brothers, BoDeans and The Cash Brothers immediately coming to mind"-PopCulturePress. <p> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins102.mp3"><img src="http://www.notlame.com/images/ear.jpg" width="20" border=0 alt="power pop, independent music"></a> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins102.mp3">Sunrise</a> - mp3<p> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins103.mp3"><img src="http://www.notlame.com/images/ear.jpg" width="20" border=0 alt="power pop, independent music"></a> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins103.mp3">Careless Love</a> - mp3<p> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins106.mp3"><img src="http://www.notlame.com/images/ear.jpg" width="20" border=0 alt="power pop, independent music"></a> <a href="http://audio.notlame.com/sounds06/cddevlins106.mp3">Don`t Let It Break Your Heart</a> - mp3http://www.notlame.com/Browse_by_Artist/D/The_Devlins/Page_1/CDDEVLINS1.html
