Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Manchester-born electronic duo crafted a profoundly melancholic, cinematic homage to Northern English club culture and working-class urban life. Following the release of an acclaimed mixtape supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, this full-length heavily incorporates ghostly trip-hop rhythms, whispered spoken word, and deeply atmospheric string samples. It is a masterful, nocturnal sound collage documenting modern UK isolation.
