These UK lads made quite a splash across the pond in 08, so there's a fat chance we'll being seeing/hearing quite a bit of them in 09. White Lies are a gothed out indie band sounding a bit like the love child of The Cure and The Killers. UK critics have been raving about this act and they've even caught the ear of Morrissey and snagged a remix of their song "Death" from Crystal Castles. I don't think these fellas are doing anything too new here, they've simply sharpened up that 80s goth sound and made it sound relevant again. Their single, "Unfinished Business," is quite catchy though and will quickly be lodged in your cranium soon after hearing. Lies' croon about death and love and all that juicy stuff. The videos pretty nifty too, with the band playing in some ominously lit room, while a ghostly Alice In Wonderland-type gal wanders around a Gothic landscape.
