God, how I hate the quiet. I feel weird without the radio or TV on in the background. I think the sound of sirens when I’m falling asleep at night is strangely reassuring. So, logically, I shouldn’t like The Clientele. But ohhhh how I do. And that’s why it’s absolutely fantastic to hear that the men and woman of The Clientele will be swinging stateside to promote their latest, Bonfires on the Heath (TMT Review), a critically-acclaimed Galaxie-500-meets-The-Zombies gem of pastoral British indie pop.
