Neil Hopkins

This was another band that passed me by in the early 2000s for some reason. Initial impressions were that this was by the numbers indie rock with a heavy Coldplay influence, but as it went on it grew more irritating. They threw what sounded like a choir of children into the mix but it was the singer’s voice that had a wheedling ‘please feel some emotions’ vibe to it. Anyhoo, turns out he’s a massive online sex pest, so this album can get in the bin.
Life Hits so Far

Heard the title track play on KEXP (the radio!) one day in the car, not long after we first moved far away to Seattle. The sound is a foundational part of my experience in that new place, and a lot of the lyrics bridge and old life with a new one.
