Album Notes & Community Reviews

Self-produced within a converted button factory in East London, 'Curve of the Earth' represents a massively expansive step forward for the British indie outfit. The record largely abandons their early eccentric pop quirks in favor of grand, stadium-sized alternative rock characterized by soaring guitar work and earnest emotional delivery.
