Radlands

We’re a long way from Eel Pie Island. Recorded in a Texan shack and influenced by country rock and influenced by Terrence Malick, this fourth album sees the former inhabitants of London’s River Thames-bound boho enclave make a thrilling break for the sonic border. “Someone Purer” is a masterclass of purring guitars and glorious whoops, “Sister Everett” pairs haunting organ with an earworm hook and the enjoyably goofy “Greatest Hits” is an irrepressible showcase for Radlands’ winning brand of prog-inflected Americana.
