The Strange Idols Pattern and Other Short Stories

by Felt

Felt refined their pristine, highly melodic jangle pop with the introduction of Martin Duffy's Hammond organ and increasingly intricate Spanish guitar lines. Lawrence's deadpan, poetic vocal delivery navigates cryptic, bittersweet narratives, providing a remarkably sharp contrast to the bright, energetic instrumentation. The album solidified the band's status as sophisticated, fiercely independent architects of British indie pop.
