31-03-07 Rally 100 Tourismo reviewed in The Ticket
CabriniGreen's debut album received a glowing review in the March 30 issue of The Irish Times' weekly supplement, The Ticket. Renowned music critic, Tony Clayton-Lea awarded the album 3 stars out of 4. For those of you that missed it the review is copied below.
Dublin band CabriniGreen belatedly release their debut album, and it starts out with the sound of a band overly enamoured with REM. Very quickly, however, Rallly 100 Tourismo mutates into a different beast altogether, and the overall sound is of a group of people that has ingested the combined outpourings of The Flaming Lips, Explosions in the Sky, Radiohead and The Beatles. In other words, while experimentation is never too far away (though it is never too ostentatious either), neither is a keen sense of structure, cohesivness and melody. We like. Very much.
