Very solid collection of sweet Irish Indie tunes
After seeing "Ants" on RTE's Other Voices series, I was expecting a pretty good album, but White Fox exceeded my expectations. The opening track "The Naturalist" reminds me of something from Arcade Fire, with vocalist Niamh Farrell channelling the best parts of Régine Chassagne. Throughout White Fox, Farrell's vocals are suprisingly strong and varying in tone and texture. "Ants" is clearly the centerpiece of this set, but the songwriting is very good across the board, and the production is clean and dynamic. Start with the first three tracks and decide for yourself.
