At the
forefront of the Irish pop music stage is this
Dublin-based quartet that combines elements of electronica,
psychedelia, rock and pop to create their unusual
aesthetic. Formed in 1992, Blink has earned four Top 10
hits in their native country. Their first album, A Map
of the Universe by Blink, released in 1995 on
Parlophone Records, was described as "the finest
Irish pop album ever!" by Hot Press,
propelling it into platinum status. A local club favorite,
Blink headed to the U.S. to join the Guinness Fleadh
Festival before releasing their second full-length effort,
The End is Nigh. Released in 1998 on Mutant Sound
System, the album features one of Blink's previously
released hit singles, "Cello."
