The Rifles/Great Escape
British pop rock, up-tempo, hard driving. FCC clean. Like Morrisey, Kaiser Chiefs, The Kooks. Most songs have long instrumental intros. #1,2,10.

1. Atmospheric intro, strong hook. 2. Title track, poppy, radio hit. 3. Vocal intro, choir vocals. 4. Pop heavy track. 5. Moody, pining, 60s rock. 6. Less pop, more rock, strong guitar. 7. Upbeat tune, sugar vocals, sounds most like Morrisey. 8. Haunting intro, more melancholy. 9. Quick tempo, fast track. 10. Anthem, ballad, hard driving. 11. Beatles-esque, lots of whimsy. *Hidden track @ end. 12. Rough vocals, more gritty, hard guitar.
