Nostalgia garnered widespread acclaim from all the leading music critics on its recent release, including a glowing review from Hot Press' Colm O'Hare, an ‘Album of the Week’ award from the RTÉ Guide, and ‘One of the best albums of the year' from both the Irish Times and the Sunday Times. Similar high praise was heaped on Somnambular Ballads, the previous release of the Coolock four piece, with comments such as ‘pure pop heaven’ and ‘these soul-boy Dubs are one of Ireland’s best bands’, and the thirteen tracks on Nostalgia have raised the bar even higher. The first single from the album, ‘Symphony of Sound’ received lots of quality airplay – the single is an ode to Dublin city and is full of Joycean references – as the RTÉ Guide puts it, “the band’s very own ‘pocket-sized Ulysses’ which in its ambitious scope aims to capture the sounds and sights of Dublin in one day and succeeds admirably”.
