delorentos

To our surprise one of our favorite Irish bands slipped by us in late 2009.  Its true,  Delorentos are back with their new album You Can Make Sound which according to the band, will be released everywhere from March onward (including the U.S.). Although the album has not been yet released in the US, YCMS has already won “Best Album” in the Entertainment.ie Awards and nominated for several other Irish awards.

We’re looking forward to sitting down and catching a good listen.  You can stream their new album over at their Last.fm page.  You can also buy their latest single “Hallucinations” right here on iTunes.
