Album Notes & Community Reviews

Transitioning out of their initial burst of lo-fi singles, the Adams brothers craft a remarkably somber and pastoral full-length. The release filters fragmented noise pop and acoustic lethargy through a distinctively bleak Northern English aesthetic, hinting at the post-rock structures of their later work.

Genres

Descriptors: lo-fi, DIY, atmospheric, experimental, minimal
