McCarthy Vigil | “Measured, hushed, atmospheric and sedate.” 9/10 Whisperinandhollerin

joe933 [Edit] [Delete] 16:01, 7 April '14

McCarthy Vigil have just released their debut EP, quite wondrously entitled McCarthy Vigil. It's just three tracks and they can all be downloaded for free:

Bandcamp: https://ofnationalimportancerecords.bandcamp.com/album/mccarthy-vigil
Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/ofnationalimportance/sets/mccarthy-vigil-1

And here's a few words that were said with regards to their last release Chinese Candle:

“McCarthy Vigil know exactly when and how to break it down and inject some balls” Bearded Magazine
“Soaked in echo and showcasing singer Andy Sutcliffe’s delicate, emotion tinged vocals, before flowering into a lovely indiepop singalong” Backseat Mafia
“Finger-picked folk melodies combine with tremolo Bright Eyes-like vocals unfolding like a Sunday morning stretch, with a lovely head-nodding coda over slippery chiming guitar sonics” Sounds XP
“McCarthy Vigil have an exciting rawness and an honesty to their sound which could grow into something really interesting” Leeds Music Scene
“Angular Talking Heads rhythms and an amazing agitated energy that really excited me.” Alternative Barnsley
