The music is more expansive (but still stretched taut), the melodies are still subtle (but more spacious) & Florence Shaw even sings a bit (not much, mind).
New Long Leg’ may have been our AOTY 2021 but when albums come in quick succession it’s sometimes hard to move on. Now that it’s here, on the shop stereo & in our ears though, we realise this ambitious new record is both comfortingly more of the same & also refreshingly different - from both their previous output & from their contemporaries. It’s funky. It’s witty. It’s abstract. It’s got balls & depth & longevity. Just check out the psych funk of ‘Hot Penny Day’ to get a flavour of the welcome progression.
