The Slow Show - Lust And Learn on CD

Description

With 2015's 'White Water' and the following year's 'Dream Darling' The Slow Show established themselves as a band who inhabit their own universe. There are antecedents - the exploratory beauty of Talk Talk, the ability to frame a story like Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, The Blue Nile's determination not to waste a single note. It all coalesces into something other: unless you've heard The Slow Show before, you won't have heard anything quite like The Slow Show. As the name implies, songs take their time in The Slow Show, though there's a fresh sense of immediacy in lead single 'Hard To Hide'. But this is music built to last. That's not accidental: singer Rob Goodwin and keyboardist Frederick 't Kindt spent 18 months honing every note of 'Lust And Learn' into shape. Kindt helped establish leading Manchester studio Blueprint and knows the best local strings and brass players, who have helped The Slow Show since the start, while the Halle Youth Choir add the perfect counterpoint to Goodwin's rich, sonorous voice.
