The debut Emma Pollock CD 'Watch The Fireworks' is in and the more I hear of her solo stuff the more I'm charmed by it. It's hard to not think of the The Delgados but she's a great songwriter and that stands out. Quality as you'd normally expect from 4AD.... CD only for some stupid fucking reason.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Having devoted a decade to her Mercury Music Prize-nominated band The Delgados,  Emma Pollock returns as a fully independent artist with her ‘Watch The Fireworks’ album.Blessed with an arsenal of talent and a wealth of experience, Emma Pollock has come up with a truly impressive solo debut. As the recent first single and radio success of ‘Adrenaline’ showed – and the gorgeous forthcoming ‘Acid Test’ single underlines - Emma’s songwriting combines wide-eyed melody and thoughtful lyrics to thoroughly beguiling effect; ‘Watch The Fireworks’ is a dazzling record that demands attention.Written by Emma and produced by Victor Van Vugt (Nick Cave, PJ Harvey and Beth Orton), the eagerly anticipated album was mixed by Grammy-nominated Jeremy Wheatley, whose previous credits include Goldfrapp, Razorlight and Corinne Bailey Rae amongst a host of other successes. Offering eleven tracks of effervescent melody, it’s an exciting new chapter in the singer / songwriter’s already impressive career.Hailed as one of most influential bands of their time, The Delgados formed in Scotland back in 1994 and were a firm favourite of the legendary John Peel, recording more than ten live sessions for his landmark Radio 1 show. The Delgados founded and ran their own independent label - Chemikal Underground
