    The Black Keys' Patrick Carney, adds a Motown-y polish--but costs them a little of their debut's breezy spontaneity. [17 Feb 2012, p.72]

    With the wind still in their sails, Tennis have smashed another winner.

    Tennis' obvious strength is in their constant stream of deftly-executed melodies. [April 2012, p.105]
  4. The result is an album that is still adrift at sea, unaware of the musical landscape around them.

  1. The Alain Moore & Patrick Riley duo, who BTW is happened to be married is back with their second album "Young & Old" in case of Tennis project . What to expect on album? Very solid dose of melodic rock, with lots of add-ons, backing vocals and very catchy choruses - such as great "High Road". On release we will find much inspiration with different varieties of for ex. surf rock ("Traveling", "Robin") or alternative ("Origins" Dreaming"). Expand
