GRIAN CHATTEN - Chaos For The Fly LP

Cold and cool efforts from Grian Chatten elevate songwriter well above Fontaines D.C. efforts with monumental work.

Chaos for flies is usually contained in cans of Raid but for Grian Chatten, the Fontaines frontman now pursuing a solo career also, it comes in the form of intimate recollections.

Recollections of summer looks and nicely-wielded bass guitars swing through Chaos for the Fly, a demanding and storied debut piece for the man breaking off from a darling indie group. He knows the score and plants it firmly on The Score, Chatten’s storming and sincere opening track which guides listeners through his nine-track offering.

Knowing looks are the game Chatten plays and he charts it comfortably. Rising acoustics and the fresh sincerity which flows through this piece is as inviting as expected for a songwriter with plenty to prove.
