Something about Scotland...Idlewild

It's rock.

Roddy Woomble, Rod Jones, Allan Stewart, Gareth Russell and Colin Newton make up the band Idlewild. Their CD "Make Another World" came out in the UK on March 5th. You'll be able to get it in the US next week on April 3rd. (Though you can pre-order their album and get the digital formats ASAP from their site).

Idlewild's new album shows them as they really are, a rock band. They veered off the strictly heart on their sleeve Indie music and put some real feeling into the music behind the words. Their earlier songs lack that feeling. I think they have definitely matured in this new album and I'm very excited by what I'm hearing now. Not that I don't like everything else, just that I appreciate them taking a leap. ;o)

Idlewild - "Not Just Sometimes But Always" (earlier album "Warnings/Promises")
