What to buy: Unfinished Business is released by Chess Club on April 28. Least likely to: Be sponsored by Kellogs. But are they just the new Editors? Most likely to: Become some 15-year-old indie fan's new favourite band. The buzz: "A glossed up out-take from Control covered by Tears For Fears." The truth: Their two MySpace tracks are promising epics/have epic promise. We want 15-year-olds to go away thinking we're their favourite new band." We don't want smash hits, we want to make albums, lots of them, over time. The best thing that's been said about us is that we're a band of 2008, but that we could be from 2028 or 1980.
We don't want people to know what we eat for breakfast. "We wanted to prevent too much premature buzz and keep it all secretive. Now all they've got to do is survive the hype. Their music, described as cinematic, has been polished and perfected by name producers Ed Buller and Max Dingle.
"Our songs come from a higher power," they tell us, "one we're not in control of." Talking of higher powers, Mark Ronson, Morrissey and Nick Cave have all checked out White Lies live. And From The Stars, about a dead celebrity who was financially successful but emotionally destitute, has the atmosphere of something uplifting and northern from 1984 and the anthemic insistence of Do They Know It's Christmas, also from 1984. Other White Lies tracks, written by Cave and McVeigh, include Death, which is about fear, death and the fear of death, and sounds like U2 doing Furniture's 1986 hit Brilliant Mind. Before that, they'll release their first single, Unfinished Business, which apparently involves a murder and the forgiveness of God. (In addition, drummer Jak Brown -the band's "resident new bands guru" - has been booking acts such as MGMT and Yeasayer for the none-more-hip Chess Club). "We want to make our way into people's lives, but there's a dark undertone to what we do." And, having signed to Fiction, what they're doing is playing the odd gig, doing the NME New Bands tour in May, some festivals in the summer and "focusing on creating an outstanding debut album for early next year". "Why White Lies? Because white lies are common but quite dark, and that's how we see ourselves," they told the New Band of the Day desk last night. They talk with the confidence and conviction of true pros. When they arrived onstage for that debut live appearance two weeks ago, "four angel-faced boys in black", White Lies seemed fully-formed, immaculate, as though the whole thing had been scripted by a Hollywood screenwriter. Or maybe they're closer to those early 80s groups like Tears for Fears who took the forbidding goth rock of Joy Division and turned it into commercial, brightened-up chart pop. Some of their songs hark back to the epic anthems of Scouse-rockers Echo & The Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes (singer McVeigh sounds uncannily Julian Cope-ish). They purvey the sort of Big Music U2 and The Waterboys cut their teeth on. The background: White Lies, who achieved some renown as the band Fear of Flying, are three 19/20-year-olds (plus live keyboards courtesy of a bloke called Tommy) from Ealing and Shepherd's Bush who played their first gig at the Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen on February 27, and are already being hailed as the next Great White Indie Hope. The lineup: Jack Brown (drums), Charles Cave (bass), Harry McVeigh (guitar, vocals).
