‘Wake up’ is classic TDCC and it could have walked straight off Tourist History as a summer hit. The signature guitar lines are never too far in the distance though, filling every inch of space with delay effects and tremolo. As the album swoops into ‘Handshakes’ we are given more of an electro – pop sound, with synth and filtered vocals. With interesting guitar lines and an infectious chorus, it is unmistakably Two Door. It is a fantastic upbeat, confident track with lots going on. The record kicks off to a start with ‘Next Year’, electro beats met by Trimble’s recognisable vocals. And so, at the start of this month they gave us Beacon, only two years after their first. There is only one way to top that a hit second album. Having played the world over this past year, including having a headline night at Belsonic Festival in Belfast, and Alex Trimble being asked to make an Olympic appearance as vocalist on ‘Calibans Dream’ (making for one of the best acts of the opening ceremony) the Bangor lads have already done themselves, and their country proud. After the success of album number one, Tourist History, for many it was a case of anticipation – could they possibly top it, or even meet it.
