Album Notes & Community Reviews

Felt's debut mini-album is a masterclass in deeply melancholic, breathtakingly sparse post-punk minimalism. Lawrence's hushed, poetic vocals drift over Maurice Deebank's incredibly intricate, classically influenced electric guitar arpeggios, creating an intensely ethereal, sombre atmosphere that significantly predated and influenced the dream pop movement.
