White Lies - To Lose My Life

White Lies are a band hailing from Ealing near London and originally were in a band called Fear Of Flying. They felt that the songs they were coming up with didn't fit in with that band so White Lies came from that band with a more darker sound to the material they had played previously. The band formed in late 2007 and began gigging with the new band and songs they had written. Almost straight away they began to have record company interest and signed to Fiction Records which was an off shoot from Polydor and started work on their debut album.

To Lose My Life was the title of the album and third single off the album and the single reached 34 in the UK charts. A mixture of rock, pop and punk with plenty of 80's sounds, the single and album sound like Echo & The Bunnymen with a bit of Billy Idol in places I think. But don't let that put you off, listen to then as it is a great debut album and a cracking single. Here's the single which was released in clear vinyl.
