johnclerkenwell Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Some clear comparisons to U2 from fellow countrymen The Plea, and they are working with producer Chris Potter (U2 / The Verve / Blur). Have great hopes for this lot. Been described as "what U2 fans should listen to" (instead of the last U2 album) which is a bit harsh, but the views of blogger I Swear I'm Not Paul Listen to "Praise Be" here (it's a legal download too) and "Miracle" here.

surrenders Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 OMG he sounds just like Bono, they sound like U2, without Edge's guitar sound but with that Indie sound. Just listened to Praise Be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnclerkenwell Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 Thanks for listening, I was concerned you'd think I was spamming! Not seen them live yet, but they so far sound amazing - those vocals are awesome. Would love to hear them do something from the Joshua Tree era U2, like Running To Stand Still / One Tree Hill Facebook page here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wahine Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Wow, Bono and this singer must be related! Bono's dad go on a walk about? And I am not joking about that! Seriously, if I closed my eyes and just listen it could be U2! FANTASTIC!!!! They are going on my playlist for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
