And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow
by Weyes Blood
supported by 6 fans who also own “The Thing Is”
Gorgeous and moving, this album fills a musical void in my collection that I didn't know existed. With lyrics that speak about the human condition and instrumentals that have a medieval flair, this has become my new musical addiction 😁 Not a single note is wasted here

The album is very good overall, hate to pick just one song, could easily have gone with Float The Flood or Jolt The Amplifier. For the uninitiated, their music seems influenced by Sleater/Kinney and Throwing Muses. Having seen them live recently, got a glimpse of some new material, definitely looking forward to more from them in the years to come :)

Big, strummy songs that recall the heart-on-sleeve earnestness and lo-fi glory of early Mountain Goats.
