Bastille is pop perfection

The other day I stepped all over the band The Script.  Today, I want to give you an alternative that actually shows a range of talent. The Script truly sound so processed I felt like I was eating a chicken McNugget. Bastille is the name of the band and for some reason they don't have an actual album out. They've put a song here and there plus recently they released a free EP of covers. I highly recommend you hunt down that free EP called Other People's Heartache.  So, there's no album review for this band but a showcase of a few songs that expose their range and talent. And yes these guys are from the UK. 

"Laura Palmer" is a damn addictive pop song.  I guess the band likes Twin Peaks. If you like a synthy pop song well look no further.


"Requiem for Blue Jeans" is one of the cover songs from Other People's Heartache I wanted to share.  They do a great job of mixing "Requiem For A Dreams" famous title song by Clint Mansell with "Blue Jeans" by Lana Del Rey. These guys are good.  I'm picking up their album when they finally get around to releasing one.


"Bad Blood" is their newest single and it seems to have caught some hype with all the views. I'm thinking most are from the UK and Europe.
