Every now and again a band comes along that just sums up an exact moment in time. Birmingham three-piece Johnny Foreigner are one such act and their debut effort is chock-full of tooth-rattling, head-spinning guitar pop songs that fills the void that Pretty Girls Make Graves left when they imploded last year. Waited Up Til It Was Light features 13 instant anthems and totally justifies the record label bidding war that Johnny Foreigner were involved in earlier this year. There are tons of album highlights but co-singer Kelly really shines on the former single ‘Our Bipolar Friends.’ This record is without a doubt one of the most exciting and stunning sonic manifestos that you will hear all year. Pick it up now.
