Neon Atlas – indie-poppers preparing third full-length

What you may need to know…

01. Neon Atlas are an indie/alternative/pop power-trio from Cork City.

02. Emerging in the early part of the decade, the band released debut effort Absolute Magnitude in 2013, and followed up in 2015 with sophomore platter Graffiti Reality.

03. Streaming above is new single The Afterglow, released last night via Soundcloud and available for download from iTunes from March 2nd, ahead of the release later this year of their as-yet untitled third full-length.

04. A run of national touring to support the single begins on Saturday February 18th, with a hometown date at the Crane Lane Theatre.

Thoughts: Good, honest, indie-pop with that certain brightness that seems to be in the water in Cork-based guitar pop.

From top: RTÉ studios; Paul Reynolds; allegation of complicity between RTÉ and Garda HQ

An allegation of collusion between Garda HQ and RTÉ is among the terms of reference (see below) of the commission of investigation into the smearing of garda whistleblower Maurice McCabe.

On the morning of Monday, May 9, 2016, RTÉ crime correspondent Paul Reynolds appeared on Morning Ireland to reveal details of the then as yet unpublished O’Higgins report.

Mr Reynolds’ lengthy summation of the findings of the report  was markedly sympathetic to the Gardaí and, at times, contemptuous toward Sgt McCabe.

That report can be heard here (scroll down).

The O’Higgins Report, which was subsequently published on Wednesday, May 11, 2016, can be read here
