Keane // Silenced by the Night

Download @ Amazon.co.uk | Download @ iTunes

Keane’s first offering from their forthcoming album Strangelands comes in the form of Silenced by the Night.

In a way, it’s the typical Keane sound, but at the same time, you can’t help feel a sense of calm, a little mysticism from the melody. But at the same time, it maintains that edge of mainstream. It keeps the balance just right for this to hopefully get a suitable amount of airplay. The only criticism we have is that it does feel a little short (though that does seem to be a trend at the moment).

All we can say is a great little number from the guys and interesting start to the new album era.
