\"THE<\/p>\n

We introduced you last month to Skyfever<\/a>, an alternative rock band, based in Dublin. Their debut EP, ‘Means of Escape’, is set for release via iTunes this month. <\/strong><\/h4>\n

You can find Skyfever online on their website<\/a>, Facebook<\/a>, Soundcloud<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, and Bandcamp<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Influenced by the likes of U2, Led Zeppelin, Bowie and Oasis Skyfever strive to write great songs with driving guitars and cool melodies.\u00a0 Their first single \u2018Rise\u2019, debuted straight way on Darren Clearys show on RTE 2XM and their new release, \u2018Alive\u2019, should be received similarly favourably.<\/p>\n

Skyfever will be announcing gigs shortly to support their EP. Basically to sum up, Skyfever love life, they love music, and they love playing it. Here’s their Essential Playlist.<\/p>\n

The Fly – U2<\/strong><\/p>\n

For us this has song has the perfect blend of dark and light – the verses and chorus are polar opposites in terms of emotion and music. The drum groove in this song is massive as well and gives the song such a solid bedrock.\u00a0 Just when you think you have the song figured out the solo takes you on a journey, you can tell the edge is channelling something unique in this solo. It is songs like this which inspire us to want to hit that level.<\/p>\n
