I think it’s also great to have another person you respect having their input on your sound.Ĭould you talk me through the recording process for the album – how did you go about writing your songs? Has your sound differed any from your earlier demos – are there going to be any surprises for the fans?Ī lot of the songs are the same but they just sound a lot better! There is just more depth in the tracks and sonic variations throughout. The town we are from, Bangor, was a big tourist town in the 60s/70s and so we grew up with that history too. The past couple of years we have become tourists – playing shows in different cities and countries every night – most of which we have never been to before. How did you decide on the album’s name, Tourist History?

We are so happy with it and wouldn’t change a thing. Very good! It’s been waiting to go for a few months now. Hello Two Door Cinema Club! So your debut album is coming out next month – how are you all feeling about the release?

Already shortlisted for the BBC’s Sounds of 2010 award, TDCC are proving to be the brightest stars to light up the Northern Irish music scene for a long time – and with a lengthy tour currently on the agenda, they’re planning to light up the wholeworld.

Bangor may not be renown for producing any kind of bands whose fan base extends outside menopausal housewives (*cough* SNOW PATROL *cough*) but Two Door Cinema Club – a Bangor trio of virile twenty-somethings who create sparky, sparkling indie-pop recalling Passion Pit’s rockiest moments and Star’s synthiest moments – are here to change all that.
