Album

This full length debut of music box chimes ("Both Mirror And Armour"), sampled Japanese folk songs ("Sakura", "Takeda") and proggy Vangelis-inspired electronics (everything else) has a neo-pastoral charm which, at face value, would align it closely with the output of labels like Memphis Industries and Tummy Touch.

Intelligent heartbreak pop

Ill-advised dance overhauls of Sheffield's finest

Haines classics re-recorded, plus three new songs

Excellent introduction to gospel music

Bearded psych-poppers' premature midlife crisis

Fine fifth studio album from Mr E

Thrilling mash-up of hip hop, dancehall and jungle from London rapper

Futurist jazz 10-piece from Norway

Ungainly gothic masterpiece marks partial return to classic rock
