I got into music-making after hearing FSA's second album, 'Further', in 1995. 'Chorus' was the follow-up and it's still my favourite FSA release. (All of FSA's albums are pretty good, though.)
This is one of those rare albums where everything fits together seamlessly. The performances are excellent; production is shiny without being showy and the songwriting is very, very strong.
This is my favourite Grouper opus. It's concise without being rushed. Also, the space between the musical notes and the vocal harmonies really is a breath of fresh air. Love it!
