Though memory suggests the quality of The Coral's singles has been pretty consistent, hearing them in this non-chronological order makes one thing abundantly clear: they're still yet to better the early stuff~~

The Coral's following 2007's Roots & Echoes with The Singles Collection, a double CD that includes a bunch of singles (clearly) along with the new track, "Being Somebody Else." The video for "Being" has an old film flicker aesthetic, the Brits singing about black magic while dressing in monster, gorilla, and bear masks, sometimes echoing other animals like the Beatles or Monkees via their pasto...

The Coral are signed to the Deltasonic record label and their distinctive musical style has strongly influenced many other of the Liverpool-based label's acts, including The Zutons, The Dead 60s and The Basement.The band p...

As some of you know, I am a college teacher. One of our students has been missing since Sunday, and her family and friends and teachers are all concerned. I am going to try to attach a photo, but if it doesn't come through, please at least be on the lookout for her car, a blue 2001 Ford Escape, tag # 681SNS. She could be anywhere. She is nineteen, and her name is Rachel Anne Fogle. She wei...

The Coral, a lovely band from Liverpool, have recently released their singles album. They have been nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2005.This track is short and sweet. I agree with a colleague of mine that some songs are getting too long. I for one, always seem to be in a rush nowadays... I'm even rushing this. I easily get impatient so thankfully the words and the shortness of this s...

My Thursday in London basically starts with a matinee performance of Shadowlands, the play about C.L. Lewis who was portrayed by Charles Dance. Very good, powerful, and this shows that theater in England by far outpowers everything put on stage in The Netherlands, of which 90% is absolute rubbish.Anyway, in the evening, on to The Roundhouse for The Coral and, as supporting act, The Metros. The ...

One of the UK's most consistently underrated bands of the post-punk persuasion is The Coral. Despite being often overlooked for their more media-friendly (read: sellout) comrades like Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party, The Coral recently collected rare and "mysterious" tracks from their still-young career of five studio albums for a singles album, dutifully called The Singles Collection. Along ...

Now seems as good a time as any for us to be reminded that The Coral are a great band - this collection does just that.

The Coral - "In the Morning "I can't think of any other way to describe the Coral's music except to call it fun . The UK band's music style varies fairly wildly—at times it's poppy, other times a little psychedelic, and I've even detected a hint of sea shanty before—but it's always fun and upbeat. This song, a perennial Monday favorite, comes from The Coral's 2005 LP, The Invisible Invasion
