Land Lovers, initially the sole concern of Pádraig Cooney, is now five-strong and customisable for parties, luxury cruises and state funerals. Together, they saunter down corridors of guitarry pop, synthy rock and showy sing-songs.

Look, you can buy things off us here, you really can. Firstly, we offer you our new EP/Very Short Album, "Immovable Feet", for a mere 5 euro plus postage:

Secondly, you could become instantly attractive by owning a Land Lovers Ice Cream Tshirt, desinged by Ruan van Vliet. These cost 10 euro plus postage costs. When ordering, tell us what colour you'd like. In truth, the options are staggering:
Men's Colours: White, Grey, Yellow
Women's Colours: White, Yellow, Orange

Sizes

Now listen: if you can't decide between the two previous items (I recommend the CD rather than the tshirt, it has more lasting value), how about getting both in our astounding Combo Pack? For a mere 15 euro and no postage fee at all, you can have it all.

Sizes

Right now, the debut album "Romance Romance" is available to purchase in person in Ireland, in Road Records and Tower Records (both Dublin), and in Plugd Records in Cork. If you're not in Dublin or Cork, you can still avail of this 34-minute melody salvo. Your options are:

  • iTunes (open the iTunes application and search for Land Lovers)
  • Amazon

    Praise for "Romance Romance":

    "uncommonly smart pop...fresh melodies engage first, then fantastic lyrics kick in...achingly sweet...the wonderful, self conscious love song The Black Country easily lives up to the standard of Back on the Chain Gang, from which it borrows its opening riff...perfectly formed collection. 4/5" - The Irish Times

    "Beautiful guitar hooks, the production is near perfect for what is essentially a home recording - 4/5" - The Sunday Tribune

    “A sparky little gem from Dublin’s DIY leftfield… with a stinging lyric sheet. Vocalist Pádraig Cooney is both wounded poet and cynical dissector of modern mores and his sonic furnishings of clipped guitars and wobbly eighties synths make for a smart, no-frills backdrop. A hugely promising and highly recommended debut.” – 4/5, RTÉ Guide

    "a short, catchy and witty album with plenty of DIY charm and sweet guitars. It'll make you wonder how many other people's stuff you're missing out on, and happy that there's one name to cross off the list." - RTÉ.ie

    "Irish album of the summer, packed to the brim with gorgeous, singable tunes. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, like this record in any other musical camp in the country." - HotPress.com

    "Clever cultured pop - the whole album follows a well assembled path that continues to excite and deliver" - subba-cultcha.com

    "a warts and all depiction of modern day love... an album with catchy hooks, original lyrics and some moments of pure indie-pop." - The Event Guide
