The Irish are pretty much known for whiskey and fighting (that's not necessarily a bad thing - i love whiskey), and not Eno-inspired, synth-driven, cinematic soundscapes. Well Solar Bears are out to prove that the Green Isle is about more than getting drunk and punching someone in the face. Their new record, "She Was Coloured In," which comes out in September sounds like a soundtrack for a moon landing, much like Eno's "Apollo" album. They draw from other influences as well though. You may catch hints of everything from Aphex Twin to Principles of Geometry to Boards of Canada to Wendy Carlos in the mix. The record is awesome. Go sample it and pre-order at Planet Mu!About Me
