Goes missing

"The fidelity has been boosted, this time the guitars ring much more clearly and Kelly's pleasingly plain, nakedly honest voice is way out front, and there is more variety to the record, but it delivers the same high level of satisfaction ... Kelly and the Cairo Gang may have started out plying a quirky, inward-looking brand of folk; now they are the brightest, shimmery-est, most impressive folk-rock revivalists around and Goes Missing is as good as guitar pop gets in 2015".

"On Goes Missing, mining aural arsenals from yesteryear is rarely swathed underneath atmospherics, save for "Sniper," a driving, electronic-drum-driven minor-chord number that recalls Psychocandy-era goth-pop. Through even these slightly less-engaging tunes, the strength of Kelly's commitment to his muses is evident. There's experimentation here, however thoroughly tested, and the result is as electrifying as tying a key off to a kite string in a storm".
