After a spell of listening to The Optimist LP, I shamefully boarded a plane to Ireland. There, on the green, grassy runway, were two young men playing acoustic guitars. Sure enough, it was Turin Brakes. I grabbed one- it was Gale Paridjanian- shook him and demanded, "Are you trying to con me? I really like your songs, but are they going to bore the pants off of my millions of readers?" Paridjanian answered, "No, it's the real deal. Sure, we're secretly Irish folkies, but we threw in some drums and the songs will stay good.

The Optimist is by turns delicate, impassioned, wistful, and androgynous.

On the album, they’re sharper, more focused, but it’s still an emotionally exhausting ride. Olly is blessed with a voice which can harshly twang and softly croon, often simultaneously, can register naivety and crushing world-weariness in the same phrase. The nuance of the line making me breathe again in stand-out ‘Emergency 72’ is enough to break your heart. It’s moments like that which endear you to Turin Brakes. The gentle strings in ‘Feeling Oblivion’. The gorgeous chime of Paradganian’s slide guitar on ‘The Door’.
