Seventy-five minutes of glorious melodies that span 60s psych, English folk, Seattle art-punks The Wipers, the buzzsaw pop of Dinosaur Jr and Hendrix-esque explorations. There’s always an element of playful Englishness to their music.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHeavily influencing the likes of The Lemonheads, Teenage Fanclub, Elliot Smith, Pavement and Dinosaur Jr, the cult icons have produced another off-kilter mix of melodic piano-led melancholy, acoustic ruminations, scratchy garage rock with a punky edge and full-on guitar histrionics.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLike its much-praised predecessor, ‘Little Eden’, the new record studies the world’s weariness but fills out a bigger canvas; fast food and global warming, broken hearts and long gone nights out, everyday immortality and being God’s gift all share space. It’s like Townshend at his most thematic; Big Star in all their acoustic glory, perfectly balancing the punky garage rock combo who end up running on ‘Empty’ with Gilmour breaks that elevate it all to grandeur.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Still mixing pop, punk and psych to giddy effect.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- The Guardian\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Self-reflection is twinned with a rueful survey of the current state of the nation.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- Uncut\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack List :\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA1 Heat\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA2 Focus on Nature\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA3 God's Gift\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA4 Vitruvian Man\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA5 A Mirror\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB1 Leb Off\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB2 Here For the Other One\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB3 Happy Wings\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB4 Empty\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB5 Wrong Way Round\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eC1 Mr Freds Disco\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eC2 Jack Immortal\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eC3 Hairstreaks\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eC4 Maybe We Got It Wrong\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD1 Brocadine\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD2 Big Black Sky\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD3 The Hug\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD4 I Can't Breathe\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eD5 Hung on a Wire\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fire Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43058684133532,"sku":"FIRECD743","price":14.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/unnamed_3_18fa4500-7609-490c-836f-c017501102fd.jpg?v=1706694528","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/the-bevis-frond-focus-on-nature-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
