"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." Hunter S. Thompson
Q Mag August 2008: I Dream Of Black (Drift, **** Q Recommends) recalls the psychedelic-rock splendour of Spiritualized at their peak
The Independent, London *** This Brightonian (also of Electric Soft Parade) forges dream-scapes in a DIY spirit on his solo album, recorded at home on four-track. The result prizes mood over melody, suggesting languid evenings spent alone in his bedroom. But if you crave heady chin-scratchers ("Will The Moon Ever Rise Again?") in psych pastels, he makes sounds to swim in.
I Dream Of Black Tracklisting:
1. Is It Wrong To Lose Faith In The Person You Used To Love? 2. The Runaround 3. Starry Nite 2 4. The Silence Stops Tonight 5. I Dream Of Black 6. This Is Just A Little Interlude... 7. Starry Nite 3 8. Will The Moon Ever Rise Again? 9. White Wave 10. Wartime Love/Solar Collapse
"Full of regret, hard-won wisdom and DIY pop artistry, No Need To Be Downhearted transcends bog-standard indie to build a world of sophisticated melody and ingenious arrangements..." - Mojo Magazine 4/5
"They appear to have found their level: one of rock's best-kept secrets." - Q Magazine 4/5
"This eclipses all of their previous work and, indeed, much of this year's output generally. Their previous paymasters must be gutted - No Need To Be Downhearted is cause for serious joy." Rocksound Magazine 9/10
"Whirling organs, orchestrated soundscapes, spangly electro noises - understated anthemic indie rock of the highest order." The Sun 4/5
