Album Notes & Community Reviews

The English sextet's sophomore album traded some of the frenetic, sea-shanty eccentricity of their debut for a smoother, remarkably cohesive homage to 1960s psychedelia. Meticulous vocal harmonies and jangly, reverb-drenched guitars drive the collection's surprisingly mature songcraft.
