Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking the full band's return after their longest studio hiatus, 'Time Skiffs' was developed from live performances before being assembled remotely, resulting in a sound that is more patient and melodically focused than their recent output. The album balances intricate vocal harmonies and dub-influenced rhythms with a pastoral, psychedelic warmth, exploring themes of memory, parenthood, and the passage of time with a tranquil, compositional clarity.
