Product Description

TOURING SXSW THROUGH COACHELLA #1 DEBUT IN THE UK

WHITE LIES (Harry McVeigh - Vocals/Guitar, Jack Brown - Drums, Charles Cave - Bass) - The first breakthrough artist of 2009 in the UK, will arrive straight off the acclaimed NME Awards Tour, the annual tour that has previously broken Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand and The Killers overseas. On their US tour (also presented by NME), WHITE LIES and Friendly Fires will rotate the headlining spots, with each band playing a full set every night. MOJO: "Epic British Indie Reborn!" NME: "Majestic Rock doesn't get more haunting than this."

THE FLY: "To Lose My Life is a big, fuck, a massive album."

THE GUARDIAN: "Strikingly catchy and accomplished." ARTROCKER: "Bypass this band at your peril."

5.0 out of 5 stars Stellar!, March 25, 2009
What an incredible album...I had the import of this since January and haven't stopped listening to it. Very dark and mysterious at times, like a window into a twisted soul. It hints at goth and electronica but never deviates from true rock music. Nothing sounds corny or contrived. This really is THE rock album of 2009.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cd I've heard in a long time!, August 12, 2009
What can I say? This is like a modern version of some of my fave 80's bands--INXS, Depeche Mode, Psychedelic Furs. I love every track on this cd and have listened to it over and over. I'm amazed that something so complete came out of a debut cd. Fabulous job guys!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This White Lies album is hot. Anyone who buys this album will be very pleased. I haven't found a song by White Lies that i didn't like. They are the best band on the planet.
