Album Notes & Community Reviews

Hailing from Canterbury, the British quartet meticulously revives the complex, jazz-inflected psychedelic rock historically associated with their hometown's famous 1970s scene. The album seamlessly integrates prominent violin and mandolin into shifting, technically demanding time signatures without sacrificing their distinctly modern, indie-rock melodicism. It was highly praised as a remarkably authentic and refreshing continuation of classic progressive pop traditions.
