British Sea Power will be in the US to support their brand new album Open Season, which hits stores on April 5 via Rough Trade. This is truly one of the last brilliant Britpop bands, so make sure you do not miss this tour. Their live shows are always memorable as the ones you find yourself talking about years later. If there are chandeliers, you can bet that Yan and Noble will eventually find themselves swinging from them. As for the music, their intelligent pop has never sounded better. Don’t be surprised to see Open Season on plenty of best-of 2005 lists this year, including mine.
