Artist Recommend : "BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB"


Hi guys, today I’m going to recommend the band named “Bombay Bicycle Club”. I’ve known this band for about one year, but actually this band’s started since 2009. At first, I must accept that I interest this band because of their name, not their songs. “BOMBAY BICYCLE CLUB” I don’t know, it sound odd. “Bombay” it is like something in India, not an English band. HAHA!

Anyway, after I listened to their songs, I’m immediately fall in love with them! Their songs are amazing. Although they call themselves is an indie rock band, it’s not sound THAT rock to me. After I listen to their entire three albums, I feel that many of their songs are sweet, lovely, and make me tapping my foot, not jumping around the room like any other indie rock band does. They have three albums so far. If you love indie rock I recommend the first album “I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose “. If you love something folk and acoustic, the second album “Flaws” is perfect for you. But, if you love both indie rock and acoustic, the third album “A Different Kind Of Fix” is the best.

Personally, I think Bombay Bicycle club is one of the interesting bands for nowadays. They're still young(the members are about 22 years old) so, they have many chance to improve their album to be better and better. And all of their album that I heard, I think they did it well. So, I looking for their new album. no doubt that they are one of my favorite bands!  


The band members

Here are my top five of their songs:

1. Shuffle
This is the first single of their third album, but it is my first song that I heard from them. I love this song the most because of the melody, especially at the beginning of the song. My friend told me once it is sound like a sound in a game, but I like it. Whenever I hear this song, I’m feel fresh, and feel like there will be something good coming soon. :)




2. Always Like This
The bass line of this song is PERFECT! I LOVE THAT! That’s enough for this song to be my number two! period!!

3.  Ivy & Gold
This is my most favorite song of the second album. I love the sound of banjo (FYI the banjo is a string musical instrument like guitar, but sound different. Usually used in a country song.) the banjo made the song sound sweet. I love that.

4. Lights Out, Words Gone
I don’t know what exactly the meaning of the song is, but this song make me happy. You should watch the music video of this song, it’s lovely. I bet you will smile after you watch it.:)

5. Dust on the Ground
There are two version of this song, the rock version in their first album and the acoustic version in the second album. But I prefer the acoustic version because the sound is more beautiful and relaxed than the other one.

Ok, this is the end of my blog for today. If you want to listen the song that I recommend, you can choose by click play button at the right of the page.(Although it's autoplay...) I Hope you'll enjoy it! Feel free to tell me if you love them or not, or if you have any music recommend. Have a nice day guys!
