INDIE rockers British Sea Power make a welcome appearance at the Spring & Airbrake in Belfast next Thursday.
The Brighton group have enjoyed a word-of-mouth success since their inception in 2001 and 2008 looks to be their defining year.
Their style ranges from the sweeping, often epic, guitar pop sound to the visceral and angular.
Critics have likened their sound to a variety of groups, from The Cure and Pixies and they've most often been compared to Joy Division.
Their debut single Fear of Drowning was issued in limited numbers of their own Golden Chariot label.
Geoff Travis of Rough Trade Records saw the band live and in September 2001 signed them to his label.
The Decline of British Sea Power, the band's debut album, was released in June 2003 to critical acclaim.
A single from the album, Carrion, became the band's first Top 40 single.
The album only charted in the lower reaches of the UK Album Chart but turned out to be a word of mouth success, shipping well over 60,000 copies over the following two years and allowing them to play sell-out UK tours to venues of over 1,000 people.
The follow-up, Open Season, was released in early April 2005, and also enjoyed wide critical praise.
It showcased a more accessible, produced sound and charted at Number 13 in the UK Albums Chart. Lead single It Ended on an Oily Stage charted at Number 18 in the UK Singles Chart a week earlier.
The band has a reputation for elaborate and well-thought out live shows and won the 2004 Time Out London Live Band of the Year award.
