The Cinematics are a foursome from Scotland. They recently released their first album, “A Strange Education.” I picked it up immediately, and have enjoyed it ever since! They’re an alternative band that sounds a little like The Cure, Editors, or Bloc Party. I found the band when local radio station 94.7 played their single “Break” for a couple months last winter.

You can preview a couple of their songs on their myspace.

I really liked their CD. There are only a couple songs I don’t care for (except for the “bonus” track, which I hate!). My favorite on the CD is the title song, “A Strange Education,” and I still love their first single, “Break.” “Maybe Someday,” “Alright,” and “Race to the City” round out my top 5!

Here’s the music video for Break:
