The Coral - something inside of me, 2005

"Singer James Skelly - now 24 - still resembles a schoolboy given detention. Their fans come for their musical spells, haunting melodies that have survived a re-alignment further left-of-field. She Brings the Mourning perhaps over-references Can; Something Inside Me sounds like Madness and madness. The night's highlight, Late Afternoon, is an affecting slice of regret for lives left behind. "The place where we meet, tears in our eyes," sings Skelly, and the band leave the stage to be whisked off by Tardis, or tour bus."
