Keane - Spiralling - Perfect Symmetry - Keane

One of the Ordinary Joes here, to tell you about one of the greatest english bands i've ever heard, Keane. They have released their first single off their third album entitled “Spiralling”, for free download on their official website www.keanemusic.com until August 11th.

The upcoming album is called “Perfect Symmetry”. I must admit I didn't pay much attention to their sophomore album “Under the Iron Sea”, however it was a big success selling 2.2 million copies worldwide. But, from what I remember of their first album “Hopes and Fears”, with hits like “Somewhere Only We Know” and “Everybody's Changing” that were both top 5 hits on the UK Singles Chart my anticipation is justified. Because of the success of “Hopes and Fears” in 2004, the band was nominated for the Grammy for Best New Artist but ultimately lost to John Legend, they also won two BRIT Awards in 2005 for Best British Album and British Breakthrough Act.

With every album Keane seems to change their style just a bit, attracting more and more fans from a wider spectrum. I downloaded and listened to the song myself, truly amazing. It is sure to have you swaying. “Ooo, Ooo...I'm waiting for my moment to come”. The lyrics range from “Did you wanna be a winner?” to “Did you wanna be in love?”. The lyrics seem to hold some regret but, in them we also find a flicker of hope, “Cold like some magnificant skyline, Out of my reach, But always in my Eyeline now” I'm sure Keane is gonna “rock” the alternative rock world with “Perfect Symmetry” which will be releasd on October 13th.
