Album Notes & Community Reviews

Shedding much of the abrasive shoegaze noise of their earlier releases, the British quartet opted for a highly ambitious, conceptually sprawling art-rock direction. Co-produced by Tim Friese-Greene of Talk Talk, the album features sweeping, dynamic soundscapes and prominent keyboard orchestration, marking a massively underrated peak in 90s progressive alternative rock.
