The debut album from this English band.
Let me begin with the most obvious: The band is female vocals fronted. And the music is a mix of everything. Take some folk rock, jazz, prog, Middle Eastern folk rock, indie and some psychedelic rock. That should give you an indication about what this band has done here.
Of comparisons, the band sometimes sounds like Garbage, Kate Bush and David Bowie. There is an unmistaken whiff of the Middle East and Arabic music here. Ditto for pretty commercial rock too.
I do not know why this album is a free download from Bandcamp. My guess is that they use this album as a business card to get gigs and some better deals. I am saying this because the band has all the hallmarks of a band who will go far if they really work hard for it. This album has some very good songs. Their vocalist is great. The band can really do a great job on gigs. I do not know the London scene, but I hope they are really burning up the gigs scene there. They can open for anyone. This band may be the next big thing.
The music is very good throughout and the free album is an offer nobody should pass up on. A killer track or two is the only missing thing here. Besides of that; this is a very good album.
