An iconic masterpiece of UK guitar pop, with transparent falsetto and flickering sound images resonating together.
This debut album reached number 17 in the UK charts, and is a record that builds on a delicate texture, centered around the falsetto and sparkling guitar pop that are exemplified by hits like "Long Time Coming" and "Nearer Than Heaven."
This stunning debut from the Southampton-born four-piece boasts a level of maturity that belies its early work, as evidenced by its UK chart-topping #17. The album's greatest draw is the floating sensation created by the overlapping of Greg Gilbert's crystal-clear falsetto and Aaron's sweet synthesizers, a quality that is vividly brought to life on tracks like "Long Time Coming" and "Nearer Than Heaven." The soft guitar pop created by Duncan Lewis and the band itself blends seamlessly with the meticulous acoustic treatment of Graham Sutton's compositions, enveloping the album with fresh melodies. A timeless album that sheds new light on the UK rock scene.
