Love for the Hometown debut..
9/10 Adam Horovitz - SNJ
The name may sound like a bit of a boast... but two tracks in and the boast is justified; this is a superb album, chock full of meaty brass,giddy electronica and more ideas than one could safely shake a stick at.
From the crunchy, invigorating reggae of The Matt Jones Ending to the laidback, bleepy euphoria of Dub Club by way of a glorious fiddle solo and the haunting trumpet on Hometown Hi-Fi, this is …a proper brass-propelled reggae album dressed in a fine raiment of electronic goodness. The tunes are exquisite and the production is so
tight that if you turn the volume up enough it sounds like the band has invaded your front room and is playing a gig just for you.
Listening to this in the spring sunlight, it felt like I was at a festival; I could see this band going down a storm at Glastonbury or Womad.
Hometown Supersound? Ten steps beyond!
