megacity Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 not exactly my cup of tea, will check the album anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartswarm Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I love White Lies. It sounds like a combination of all my favorite bands - Interpol, The Killers, Echo and the Bunnymen, Joy Division, Tears for Fears, Editors. Harry Mcveigh's vocals are fantastic (like goosebumpingly-fantastic)! Maybe that's where some people get problems with White Lies. They don't think the band's music is very original. However, i could say that I've enjoyed the album. Having found this band two weeks ago has changed my listening habits. Freakin' addicting this band.

polkahard Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Just got tickets to check out White Lies (along with Friendly Fires) in about two weeks. Can't wait--going to be an awesome show, I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polkahard Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Saw White Lies last night and all I can say is, "WOW." Really hope these guys hit it big in America because they were awesome live last night. I saw them at this tiny little venue in Philly and was in the front row and was basically on the stage. Also, Friendly Fires played last night too and were ridiculously good. The lead singer is a crazy dancer and came down into the crowd (right next to us) and danced around during On Board. Really great show. If you're in the US and White Lies/Friendly Fires comes around, definitely go check them out. Terrible cameraphone pictures (and totally unzoomed, mind you): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospekt. Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I guess I'm a little late on this, but I just got the album. Man it's really good. I love Death, From The Stars, To Lose My Life. Great. Really kind of depressing though. But great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frangipanis Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Just bought their album from the bookstore because last.fm told me too :P I really like it, though I'm not sure which tracks are my favorite yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w1ll1am7 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I wrote a review on the record on my music review blog, i haven't written it in a while, but check it out! http://charlton7.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Famous Old Painter Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 To Lose My Life is an interesting album, though I find some songs amazing and others just dull. The title track, Farewell To Fairground, EST, A Place To Hide and Fifty On Our Foreheads are brilliant though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauiwi Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I AM SO HAPPY Found out today that they're coming to Melbourne! 30th July, a while away, but Im gonna be front row, baby!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawlinwithin Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I love White Lies... kind of a rip off of a lot of 80s bands, but honestly who isn't a ripoff now-a-days. Nevertheless, their music still seems fresh and delightfully dreary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonikaM Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Yes, they are great. I love "Death" - really good song! I'm gonna see them at Open'er Festival in Poland in July. Can't wait! Crawlinwithin, I can see you like Kings of Leon. I love them! I am a HUGE fan of KOL. They're playing at Open'er Festival this year and I can't wait to see them live. Have you ever seen KOL live? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so mad, I could've seen them in Philly this year but the tix were too expensive :( PS my name's Jeff btw, I hate this stupid screename which I made in like 6th grade during my Linkin Park obsession haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaying-forever27 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Hey The White Lies as everyone should know are supporting our very own at both of the Wembley dates this september. Honestly, I am looking forward to them soooo much its not real, I am not sure how many people going to the shows are actually aware of WL but I would like to urge everyone to get familiar with 'em, ASAP. They absolutely rocked at Glasto earlier today, and, I was impressed. Death is such a cool lead single of course (which is important) but as an album "To lose your life..." is just quality throughout and actually despite their huge differences to Coldplay, I reckon that being a CPer their music becomes so very easy to listen to. Anyway I would love to know if people agree, or not, and to hear your thoughts would be ace. A big thanks to Coldplay and to whoever pushed for White Lies to fill the fantastic line-up for Wembley, which will be the greatest one-day gig in history> Merci Beau-coup. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
