"Recorded at Real World Studios and produced again by the famed John Parish (...), the much talked-abou crowdpleasers of the 2015 Womad finally return (...) with a more than worthy follow-up to 2014's fabulous "Rotorotor". Fans (who tend to be dedicated and excitable) will be pleased to know that everything they love about what we recklessly tagged 'the best band ever that you've never heard of (apart from Dog Faced Hermans)' is all present here. Liz Moscorola's engagingly mellifluous vocals and violin, Aida Diop's rippling, rattling marimba, Wilf Plum's unrestrained percussion, leader Vincent Bertholet's driving bass, Mael Saletes' spiky West African influenced guitar, plus trombone textures, lots more percussion, strings and vocals all serve to fill out their conceptualist wall of sound ... There may not be a song about a revolutionary sheep on this one, but folkist ears will perk up the pleasure at the inclusion of the traditional Scottish song, 'Across The Moor' though suffice to say it's anything but conventional folk rock ... It really is one of the most thrilling, inventive, joyfully wig-bending and challengingly fun records you'll hear in quite a while".
