Jet plane and oxbow

"Coming in at just over 50 minutes, it's the band's most streamlined collection of music since 2008's career-defining Rook, and their most vital offering to date ... truth is that Jet Plane and Oxbow, like the band itself, which has been consistently hitting the pavement and cranking out high-quality products for nearly 15 years, never really lets up".

"Shearwater's sometime naturalist frontman, Jonathan Meiburg, describes the band's ninth and finest album as a "protest record", and it finds him surveying a world embattled by consumerism and environmental menace. As the lyrics hurtle between bloody beaches and ozone-cracked skies, the music strives for a brooding but soaring power to match the message. Motorik Neu! beats and Talk Talk-type atmospherics manage to be epic without sounding bombastic".
