About this item

Quickly heralded as a brave new voice in electronic pop, North London based Real Lies are embodying what it is to be young, locked in and yet somehow adrift in Britain today.

Real Lies’ music expresses late-night euphoria at the same time as it embraces the horrors of the following afternoon, twinning street bravado with bedroom vulnerability, loss with longing. It is music about burying yourself in an avalanche of words and warm bodies in an endless search for the right ones.

Baggy era indie, Stereo MCs breaks, the Streets intimate reportage... all for a new generation of sophisticated and urbane youths freed from genre constraints.

The LP is a single vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve, and includes a free download of the album.
