Let's Take A Ride

With a thriving scene developing in Cork, local three-piece rock outfit Eve of Mind have steadily attracted acclaim. Their latest release sees them treading similar angular terrain to Editors and Director, particularly on the EP's title track. Lyrically, however, Ger Buckley and company fail to impress. Minimalist production presents problems, too. A darker, more menacing tone creeps into b-side ‘Come On Down’, though again poetic naivety scuppers proceedings.
