Cashier No 9

To the Death of Fun

The Northern Irish quartet have spent a long time compiling enough material for a full-length release and To The Death Of Fun is their first. It looks towards the sunshine-soaked sound of the LA West Coast, echoing the objectives of The Thrills, from across the border in Dublin, who managed to achieve both critical and commercial acclaim in the mid-2000s.

The results of Cashier No 9's hard work produce a mixture of dream-like lullabies, the kind of harmonies you'd expect from almost any artist on the Bella Union label (especially in the wake of Fleet Foxes' success) and the odd ambitious brush with drama here and there. It all adds up to a hugely enjoyable listen that is made for these long summer days.
