The mercury prize winning outfit’s multifarious sophomore proves that ‘an awesome wave’ was no fluke – this record is even more expansive, inventive, intriguing & colourful.
Where their stunning debut hung around the distinctive singles, ‘this is all yours’ is much more of a complete listening experience that takes you on an art-pop-prog journey of vibrant instrumentation, complex textures, multi-layered vocals& harmonies, leftfield beats & wonky tunes. by turns dancey & downbeat, the whole thing hangs together brilliantly & every time you return to it you’ll find another moment of magic that you missed last time. another “awesome wave” of non-conformist off-kilter pop music, full of unexpected twists & turns. check out the hidden track too for further confirmation of their insanely accomplished musicianship. “a collection of sublime hooks & textures rather than conventional songwriting” 4/5 – guardian.
