Review Written by Mark Youll, 18th December 2007

So easy, so simple, just so black and white. There is great beauty hidden in these words, and in this music. In the songs and voice of London singer songwriter Gene Linford. These songs, these stark rock love-letters spell the end of swarming production. These songs lay bare, unsupported with the exception of pale guitars, dry industrial drums and brooding strings.

Gene Linford will be huge. Gene Linford is huge. A huge new talent that echoes the dreamy delivery of Magnet with the many flickering moods of Ed Harcourt ,a jagged Fionn Regan and maybe even the coldness of a stony Chet Baker.

Gene Linford has a voice that’s wide, starring songs called Falling, No More and Don’t Lose Your Love. Songs bent like simple sketches. Songs bent with intoxicating words. Late night tales all dressed in the same twisted beauty. The same delicate drive. Songs so easy, so simple, so black and white.

Alright Gene?

We all thought you deserved to win your category mate. Unlucky there. We saw you across a crowd in the Bull and Gate too, but felt a bit starstruck to come and speak!

Anyway, in future we'll say hello.

All the best, see you soon,

SRC.

Hello Gene

I really like your songs. They always take me somewhere.
I think it's time you get yourself (and your songs) down to a recording studio.
Best Wishes and probably will see you around the Ope Mics circle (i.e.
The Stage Door, Waterloo )
