Familiar with this artist? Not as such: heard one album. Didn't get the hype.
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? Not really
Check out more from this artist? Oh **** yes!

Album title sounds like the name of a striker for Newcastle United (that's for MLM, Qwertyy and the other British footy fans, the rest of you can **** off) and it has a nice atmospheric opening with the title track. I guess you can't but give props to any band who write a song called “One Night While Hunting For Faeries and Witches and Wizards To Kill”! And it's a great song too, kind of like everything here. I see dream pop in the genre tags, and I can see why, as the second track is very much that – or is it chillwave or downtempo or trip-hop? **** knows: good though. Haven't heard anything I don't like so far anyway, and a lot I love. This is a great album. Perhaps I finally get it.


Shockingly I think is my least favorite Lips album it just does nothing for me at all. Wish I could join you on your enthusiasm for this one.
