The Joy Formidable - The Big Roar Reviews

Based on 10 critics - Overal Score:  79/ 100

Description: The Big Roar is the debut album by Welsh Indie Rock band The Joy Formidable. The record follows a year that has seen them move from tipped outsiders to band most likely to. Numerous festival appearances followed by a rampage across the UK as headliners of the NME Radar Tour has had tongues wagging and seen lead singer Ritzy feted everywhere from the NME Cool List to The News Of The World's Fabulous Magazine as a pop star in waiting. Little wonder that NME observed in this year's Cool List that 'it's a safe bet that she'll soon be going supernova'.
