New album on Ninja Tune that was released this week to very little fanfare. They've had a few singles I've enjoyed over the past couple of years so I thought I'd give this a try and it's really grown on me over the week, it's sort of like Everything Everything but with a stronger rhymic approach and a knack for tracks with a quirk or two that keeps them interesting. I'd say that every track is worth listening to but I particularly love the rave influences on Side On, the structure of the title track, the gregorian influence on Youth and the strings of Moving On... it's essentially a indie-pop album but they really do keep it interesting and I'm finding myself enjoying it more with each listen.

If you like the sound of any of the above then the album really is worth checking out... plus the previous singles Book That You Like, Eyes and Manners are all great too <3

ohh yay, been keeping tabs on this group since hearing the awesome Book That You Like last year! They defo scratch a particular pop-leaning indietronica itch for me. It's a rly solid debut record, and I do particularly love Side On with those Beach Boys-esque choral harmonies and lovely touches of breakbeat~

Hurrah! Glad someone else is enjoying this... I really do feel like the early singles fit well with this album though and wish they'd just included them. For ease for anyone else who wants to listen, here's the playlist I have for it with the earlier 3 singles included as well.

Funnily enough just learnt of this band existing the other week because they actually share a member with my current (rudely DNQed) BJSC entrant Butch Kassidy...!

Oh and I was going to send something from this to the next contest so they could have been entered twice in a row! But I just thought I’d share the album here anyway as I don’t feel like we talk about new indie enough atm
