Album Notes
Irish four-piece Bell X1 has built a devoted fan base, over the course of three albums, with their knack for melodic hooks and organic rock sound. BLUE LIGHTS ON THE RUNWAY, the band's fourth studio effort, takes a detour from that established blueprint by mixing electronica elements in with the guitars, bass, and drums. The result deepens the Bell X1 sound, giving it a heady edge without detracting from its overall warmth. Memorable melodies are still at the heart of each of these songs, whether they're rockers ("A Better Band"); gentle, digitally outfitted groovers ("How Your Heart is Wired"); or reflective ballads ("Light Catches Your Face"). This album comes recommended to those who enjoy Snow Patrol, Coldplay, or any well-crafted pop/rock with an adult alternative side.

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- Over the straight-forward stomp of 'The Great Defector,' Noonan sounds like a young David Byrne on the uplifting, carnivalesque chorus.
Rolling Stone

The digitized percussion opening lead single 'How Your Heart Is Wired' quickly spills into a lush guitar riff that suggests a more adrenalized version of Radiohead's 'Talk Show Host.'
Paste

4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t once again showcases just how satisfying a Talking Heads obsession coupled with an ability to craft uncommonly graceful ballads can be.
Q

4.5 stars out of 5 -- BELL X1's music is fresh and smart and teeming with influences ranging from Talking Heads to the Beat poets. Immensely listenable on both music and lyrics levels.
