SIBYL VANE

SIBYL VANE is a brand new Estonian band releasing their first record and already getting nice reviews! Well, this one will be part of a long list of very positive reviews too! SIBYL VANE has what it takes to become a really well-known and very good band: good musicians and a female singer who can really sing and knows how to handle a microphone. I'd label this music as straightforward indie rock which can match with the greatest. It's hard to find something negative to say, even if I'd wanted to. Instead, I hear one nice song after the other. 'Door in the Floor' is the perfect opener: simple and laying out what to expect. 'Get Out of Town' has a slight No Doubt flavour and sounds almost addictive, making you slightly move along with the beat and sing out loud. 'What's My Name' is a song that would fit with the opening track of the series of True Blood, I love the bassline and the little bluesy/country and rock sound. Sounds a bit melancholic and that's just the way I love it (this was by the way the first single). I'm totally into the flow. 'Supersonic' is a bit more rock and I like the lyrics, just as the way they are sung. Being the support act of Garbage will help them a lot and get them more airplay. Just like on 'E & A', where I can almost hear a live sound and can easily imagine them on stage and, to me, this is how a good record should sound! Pure, energetic, Helena Randlaht doesn't need computer trics or manipulations that correct her voice... So this is really pure gold!
