Soul Circus – A Free Download!

• 14th May 2012

Five piece indie rock band Soul Circus release the double A side Burn The Map and The Consequence Of Youth today. And we have one of those fine tracks, Burn The Map, for you – right here and right now as a free download.

Soul Circus have drawn comparisons with The Killers, Editors and Doves, producing catchy and well crafted pop mixed in with the majesty and size of a U2 or Coldplay.

On the back of supporting the likes of Miles Kane and Various Cruelties, their performances captured the attention of the Live At Leeds Festival promoters who have added them to the bill with bands such as The Enemy, Los Campesinos! and The Subways.

Soul Circus’ comprise of messages that are sombre and honest, both have a common obsession and a feeling of uneasiness with the passing of time. Shared themes include regret from the past, dissatisfaction with the present, and fears for the future. There is, however, a sense of optimism that runs through both songs not only lyrically but musically, that everything happens for a reason and in the end we should just let go.

Burn The Map was produced by Whiskas (formerly of Forward Russia); ‘The Consequence Of Youth’ was recorded with Mark Ellis at Propagation House, Devon (The Subways, The View).

Burn The Map is a great track, so go ahead and download it right now. And you know what? The Consequence Of Youth is pretty damned good too.
