Of all the bands currently claiming post-punk influences, Bell Hollow is the only one that is truly convincing.  Perhaps it’s because they sound like they just stepped off a tour with The Chameleons and The Comsat Angels, perhaps it’s because of vocalist Nick Niles’s Smithsian delivery, but Bell Hollow capture that sonic moment when glum, delicate, driving guitar pop ruled the cultural consciousness.  Picking up where Sons of the Burgess Shale left off, Foxgloves features ten finely-wrought gems of dreaming indie pop; chiming guitar, tight percussion, and subtle synth background textures make this a must for fans of shoegaze, post-punk, and alt rock.
