Turin Brakes - 5 Mile (These Are The Days)

Close-harmony singing and acoustic guitars. Turin Brakes have made this genre their own, and latest single 5 Mile (These Are The Days) suggests this trend will continue. Nobody can touch Gale or Olly when they're on this kind of form.

5 Mile doesn't appear on Ether Song, but is comparable to a more driving version of Pain Killer. The song takes a simple chord progression and lays it over a bold drum loop, giving it that head-bopping feel that Turin Brakes employ every now and again. Olly's voice is as sincere as ever, and his ability to pen a memorable line has simply grown stronger. It won't be long before you're singing "These are the days that are driving me crazy / These are the days that are driving me insane" to yourself without even realising it.

Piano and synth keep the ear interested during repeat plays, and the song's absence on Ether Song means 5 MILE will be a must-buy for many, and rightly so - it's another Turin tour de force.
