Keep On With Falling (2021)

1998 Was the first post-Britpop year, an era which, although short lived, had been very good to this band, largely through the success of their ubiquitous mega hit Wake Up Boo! Call this a revival? Well, more of a slow dance. Memories of You was released in 2021, the overriding impression of which was very much a band trying to restore long abandoned muscle memory. Keep On With Falling however goes a long way to proving it as a stepping stone. Whilst they’re now happiest it seems with indie tags, lyrically they deal with subjects like addiction, euthanasia and a disavowal of religion here, serious people having lived their experiences. Maybe not a Father’s Day present for Uncle Alan then, but the veterans can still rip out a great tune, as the title track, opener I’ve Had Enough I’m Out and I Say A Lot Of Things all demonstrate. The Boo Radleys it seems are now officially a thing again.|
