By The Sea

By The Sea release their debut album Mixed by their friend Bill Ryder Jones. By The Sea make music that can't contain itself, bursting with joy that sounds like it's tripping over itself in its desire to get out of the speakers.

Some of these songs sound like anthems, yet there is a constant introspection that prevents them from sounding bloated. Comparisons have been made to early Stone Roses, The Go-Betweens, and dreampop.

Like fellow young northerners, Money, they pull on past influences and make them sound like the most disorientating love affair that ever failed.
