Description
Five and a half years after the angular splendidness of The Law Of Large Numbers, Emma Pollock has finally delivered not only its follow-up but an album thats up there with the very best in Chemikal Undergrounds catalogue.
With nods to Kate Bush, Kristin Hersh, Dusty Springfield and Sandy Denny, Emmas songwriting has never been better with her vocals recalling the likes of Annie Lennox or Siouxsie Sioux.
Produced by ex-Delgado Paul Savage at Chem19, In Search Of Harperfield showcases Emmas flamboyant, sophisticated and unerringly melodic style and should cement her reputation as one of our most gifted alternative artists.
Theres a lot to comfort any bereft Delgados fans out there, with tracks like Parks And Recreation and Dont Make Me Wait recalling her old bands flair for leftfield pop and the elegant oddities of Alabaster, Monster In The Pack and Old Ghosts easily surpassing any high watermark reached by The Delgados in their 10-year career.
180g vinyl includes a digital download code.
Pollocks solo career is proving the true measure of her assured talent Mojo (4/5)
