Playing things safe has never been The Drink's philosophy. Throughout the trio's evolution, their gloriously off-kilter guitar pop melodies and lyrical curiosities have commanded attention - and on brand new album 'Capital', they're pushing the boundaries even further, eschewing meticulous planning in favour of instinct across even more wondrously intriguing tracks. Take the disco-infused 'You Won't Come Back At All', born from a night out dancing in Whitechapel, whilst lead track 'The Coming Rain' is the result of years spent listening to Kenyan Ayub Ogada. Elsewhere the nervy blues guitar sound of 'Hair Trigger' and 'Like A River' are driven by what Dearbhla calls a 'got-to-catch-my-train feel'. 'Capital' is a massive leap forward in sound, song and intrigue. Think a mix of Life Without Buildings or a choir girl fronting the Dirty Projectors.

Newly signed to Melodic, The Drink now intoxicate further with the arrival of 'Company'; their gloriously inventive debut album.  Collecting together those now-unavailable EPs, 'Company' has an inimitable, wayward sound drawn from the chaos of real life. In the way bands such as Deerhoof are revered for their unusual sonic approach, The Drink celebrate beauty in oddness through their use of bold syncopated rhythms, strange time signatures and complex structures, via a love of artists from Joanna Newsom to The Breeders and Captain Beefheart. While many lose their sense of melodic direction labouring to create an intriguing experimental sound, on 'Company' it never wanes through the band's boundless energy, reverberating basslines and unforgettably spontaneous fusion of American and English indie rock with Irish folk leanings.
