The Maccabees' third studio album, Given To The Wild, was a bold step forward that finally established the band as a serious player on the British alternative scene. Moving away from the indie rock roots and youthful ease of Colour It In, the musicians created an atmospheric, mature and ambitious album that borders on art rock and cinematic pop.
From the very beginning — the epic, slowly building opening track ‘Given To The Wild (Intro)’ — it becomes clear that this is not just a collection of songs, but a complete sonic journey. The album is built around themes of ageing, loss and hope, and its sound is inspired by bands such as The National, Talk Talk and Radiohead.
