Bristol based rockers offer their debut double A-side

'14:11' is an incredible track. It has everything you could want from a modern rock single: amazing guitar work, with delay-soaked string-bent riffs that evoke a melancholy yet powerful sound. Blending hard-hitting drumming and intricate melodies with passionate vocals, Kill Cassidy create a forceful, epic pop-rock single from the heart-wrenching story of a friend who just misses seeing his dying daughter before she passes away.

'Everyone To The Dancemat' falls strangely flat afterwards. It's slightly slow to be truly danceable, but has the same melodramatic guitar and vocal tendencies as its fellow A-side. It's low-key, and owes more to indie disco shuffling than epic anthemics, but creates a smooth, beat-driven slice of dancefloor pop.

Kill Cassidy have produced powerful but immediate singles of very different character, yet are both some of the best pop debut of recent years, with an individual sound and multi-layered sound. More please!
