Album Notes & Community Reviews
The eighth studio album from the long-running UK band, and the second from their revamped line-up. 'Falling Down a Mountain' is a diverse and collaborative affair, featuring extended instrumental passages, duets, and a wider range of sonic textures than its predecessor. The album incorporates elements of soul and jazz into their signature chamber pop sound, highlighted by a notable duet with singer Mary Margaret O'Hara.
