Yesterday, PVRIS dropped their second album, ‘All We Know Of Heaven, All We Need Of Hell’. Today, they play Reading’s main stage. It’s testament to just how far the trio have come – and how fast they’ve done it – that they already feel like they’re ready for the next step up.
They’ve got the songs – opening one-two of ‘You & I’ and ‘St Patrick’ is up there with anything you’ll hear all weekend. They’ve got the excitement factor too. Everyone knows their star is still only heading in one, stratospheric direction.
The only negative of their early afternoon set is that, actually, they’re fast becoming a band worthy of higher billing. Cast into the shadows of dusk, this set could be spectacular. It still is, but as a thundering ‘My House’ proves, once they get to where they’re so obviously going, PVRIS will own the lot.
