We are probably a bit late coming to the Only Thieves who are currently touring in support of their debut album Heartless Romantics that came out in January.

However, having taking a listen to their classic bar-room style indie rock encompassing dynamic power pop with a splash of punk rock and a gritty blue collar sensibility that manages to be evocative rather than derivative, we were suitably enthused to post up a couple of tracks for your listening pleasure.

So for anyone yet to discover them, for fans of Gaslight Anthem and Lucero, and for those of you who yearns for the days of The Replacements and Buffalo Tom you’ll find much to savour here.

There is also an interview with front man Jeremy Barnes and a full album stream over at AMP magazine here. And check out their frequently updated, always-entertaining blog here.
