Peace at Last

Returning after a seven-year absence, the notoriously perfectionist Scottish trio significantly altered their pristine, synthesizer-driven aesthetic by heavily incorporating acoustic guitars. Paul Buchanan's remarkably soulful, melancholic vocals navigate themes of profound longing, faith, and domestic quietude over incredibly lush, restrained pop structures. The surprisingly organic, deeply romantic recording stands out uniquely within their famously sparse and slow-moving discography.
