These New Puritans

Doom laden strings, cavernous, operatic drama and tribal drums – ‘inside the rose’ picks up where ‘field of reeds’ dropped off with an utterly essential dive into a swans-meets-‘king of limbs’ brutal new world.

Just as they did in ‘hidden’ and ‘field of reeds’, they bring martial drums face to face with synth laden atmospherics in a way no other band seems to get close to – it’s relentless, pounding and utterly brilliant in a way you need to hear to fully understand. “’inside the rose finds them setting the controls for the earlier part of talk talk’s career […], before ultimately setting up camp in the middle ground between ‘king of limbs’-era radiohead and mid-80’s tears for fears” mojo.
