专辑简介

The menacing atmospherics may still be intact but with the rough edges that made Resist so intriguing smoothed out, Kokopelli often struggles to move out of second gear. Indeed, the majority of the album follows the same crunching guitars, minimal electronica and doom-laden lyrics formula that makes it hard to distinguish one track from another. In Evans, they have one of Britain's most under-rated vocalists, her emotive folk-rock tones just as powerful and haunting as the more revered Portishead's Beth Gibbons, but even she is unable to rescue the likes of "Avalanche" and "Blue Eyed Boy" from its flat and repetitive production.
