Keane – The Theft Of Octo

July 31st, 2007

Earlier today I came across a collection of Keane songs online that’s being touted as a ‘fan’s compilation of b-sides and covers’. It’s called The Theft Of Octo and it has stunning artwork (above) not unlike Keane‘s latest album, Under The Iron Sea, which I love.

The b-sides are taken from the band’s debut album Hopes And Fears as well as Under The Iron Sea. Plus, there is a luscious cover of U2‘s With Or Without You – a cover whose enjoyment I guarantee. Most of the songs are quintessential Keane…simple songs with beautiful, haunting vocals from Tom Chaplin and piano accompaniments from Tim Rice-Oxley.

Tracklisting:
1. The Iron Sea [Magic Shop]
2. New One
3. Maybe I Can Change
4. Thin Air
5. Untitled II
6. He Used To Be A Lovely Boy
7. Let It Slide
8. The Theft Of Octo
9. Call Me What You Like
10. Wolf At The Door
11. Tyderian
12. On A Day Like Today
13. With Or Without You [orig. U2]
14. Closer Now
