Blackbud – ‘Forever’ (Independiente) Released 16/10/06

‘Forever’ is lifted off Blackbud’s debut album ‘From The Sky’, and has received fair airplay on the radio, but for all the wrong reasons. The song is a painful photocopy of bands such as The Coral and The Zutons, with its nod along chorus and innocuous indie friendliness, hence the reason why it will be joyfully accepted in to the arms of the Topman shopper. However, for this reviewer it can be quickly added to the ever-increasing pile of middling, inoffensive indie boredom. Yawn.
