Album Notes & Community Reviews

Expanding significantly upon their earlier 4AD releases, the Warren Defever-led project introduces louder, noise-pop elements and art rock complexity to their ethereal sound. Despite the shift towards denser instrumentation and distorted guitars, the music retains a distinctively cryptic, dream-like atmosphere anchored by haunting female vocals.
