Protobaby: The Spark

Fresh from putting multiple cyber-noses out of joint with their video for recent single ‘Traditions’, Limerick foursome Protobaby present their debut album The Spark and – good news! – it’s chock-full of incendiary indie anthems and stadium-straddling rock numbers. ‘Only A Spark’ is worth the price of admission alone, while ‘Microchip’ and the aforementioned ‘Traditions’ are made all the more interesting by singer Colm McGuinness and his wonderfully evocative baritone.
