The Millpond Years

by And Also the Trees

The Millpond Years cover art

Distinguishing themselves from their grim post-punk contemporaries, the British outfit leaned heavily into rural, pastoral imagery and sweeping, mandolin-like guitar picking. The deeply poetic, atmospheric arrangements evoke a uniquely melancholic English folklore, standing as an enduring triumph of ethereal gothic rock.
