[TuneOTD] The Riot Tapes – PHOTOGRAPH


Artist: The Riot Tapes
Genre: Indie/ Alternative/ Power Pop
Location: Dublin, Ireland
Label Type: Indie
Record Label: Mostar Records 

'Photograph' is the debut single from Dublin based indie rockers The Riot Tapes. Formed in 2009 the band are currently in the process of recording their debut album. Photograph is a classic slice of indie pop rock pie, with positive nods to The Pretenders and Blondie. Opening with a steady drum beat and an contagious guitar riff, Photograph reaches a crescendo with an emotionally charged chorus. The music sparkles, but it is the luscious vocals of singer Elaine Doyle that sends Photograph into orbit. The Riot Tapes have received plenty of attention over in Ireland having been labelled as one of the “Irish Sounds of 2011” and are ready to launch an assault on the UK charts. Photograph is a perfect pop gem and there can be no doubt that The Riot Tapes have a bright future ahead of them.  
Photograph is out now on Mostar Records, and you can check out the video for the single below:
