Jonathan‘s voice is a bit like Mac McCaughan‘s, though less brittle and lither; and a dustier Dando, wispier somehow and more forlorn. The lyrics are spry and vernal, which sits well with the spring vibe and season of release (a coincidence?). The bass bounces more than it anchors. assuming some lead duties (‚spinning‘), which I love. Some of the songs (‚petrichor’) remind me of Blake Babies and The Bats, which is no surprise as Jonathan is a fan.
The word limit looms, but great record! <3
