‘Ways To Forget’, the debut album from Clock Opera, has been so hotly anticipated for so long that when it was finally announced, almost every single Echoes and Dust writer wanted to review it. However, there are perks to dating the editor and so the pleasure is all mine. And it really is a pleasure. I first saw Clock Opera perform in May 2010 at a warm-up night for Standon Calling festival, and I’ve been following them with an enthusiasm that borders on stalkerish ever since. This album is everything I’ve been hoping for from a band who I truly believe are the most exciting thing happening in music right now.
