Great thread Lou, I have their first album and it is very good, could not get into the second album, maybe I should have another listen.

The first album takes me back to late 70's early 80's

WHITE LIES 2nd album "Ritual" is a gem Sweaty...very good nearly on par to their impressive debut.
The debut "To lose my life" was a massive success reaching no 1 in the UK album charts....not bad for a debut album ! :grinthumb
I have copies of the 2 albums on cd, as for the 3rd will pick up that soon.
The band do have a retro sound at times...for me vocalist Harry McVeigh reminds me of 80s band Teardrop Explodes [ Julian Cope ] . When interviewed the band have denied such influences, saying their favourite bands are Talking Heads and The Cars
Here is a qualty track from "Big TV "

Heaven wait
