Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking its title from the legendary London studio owned by The Kinks where it was recorded, the Brighton band's sophomore album heavily polishes their melodic indie-pop sound. While failing to capture the massive cultural zeitgeist of their debut, it delivered a string of highly polished, acoustic-driven British guitar-pop anthems like 'Always Where I Need to Be'. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart.
