" This second album from the Northern Irish three piece is brief but well formed. Pretty harmonies and guitar arpeggios abound, lending a pleasant folk-rock atmosphere to proceedings.
In some ways, this record is reminiscent of Eden Burning and early Jars of Clay - no bad thing. Stephen McCabe's vocals are not exactly soaring, but it doesn't distract from his heartfelt lyrics which clearly profess his faith. Clocking in at just 30 minutes, White and Blue leaves the listener wanting more - don't be surprised if The Anselm develop into a band who could quite easily grace the playlist of Radio 2.
HIGH: The DIY ethic of the album - yet it still sounds good. "
