innisfallen - On a beach in the west under the suburb sky, a worn-out suitcase rushed ashore. Four lads opened it up, and found amongst the wet and mouldy things a record with two English words on the cover: innisfallen REALlusion.
They are the Hong Kong rock group innisfallen, the name that is pretty difficult to read and was adopted by Eric, who found the island in the middle of a lake in Ireland on the map; but he insists that they are not an Irish folk group. The four lads have different taste in music and bands, but are both under the influence of the waves of the 90s British guitar pop. They reside on the island, looking cultured in appearance, but through music they show their ardour from the bottom of their hearts, narrating fragments of movie-like life between sober and fervent emotions. Eric, majoring in English Literature at college, makes lyrics poetic and sophisticated; with the knowledge in Cinematography, Sam and Cheong build up visual layers in the songs with their guitars and drums, along with the rational bass line of Lung, the Maths graduate, creating stylish and captivating Hong Kong English rock. They were in a three-piece line up in their debut gig in early 2005; their performance moved Sam a lot. Since then, they are like light and shadow. They made a change-of-life decision on a day in winter 2006 – joining Chisel My Records, and recording their debut album, which has been done after one-year hard work.
10 songs, 10 memories. In fading youth, they try hard to trace all the clues linking to the past, making soundtracks for the slideshow projected in the eyes. Shapeless illusions are; solid realities depicted fill every single track on the record. The suitcase, lost the other day, reappears in front of us today, on the land of mammonists.
