Sydney’s Cloud Control has been tipped as a band to watch for a few years now. And with their debut album, Bliss Release, they well and truly live up to the hype.

A gloriously ambitious album which will surely enter the zeitgeist in 2010. The term ‘harmonious psych-pop’ has been used to describe them – that is probably a good place to start. It will take a few listens, but this will no doubt be one of the albums of 2010.
