Mojo

Grasscut's gentle electronics and wispy strings trace the ebb and flow of England's wintry countryside ... These calming sounds offer comfort from the cold.

Uncut
It's typical of their distinctive Englishness, which merges the academic urbanity of Sufjan Stevens with the refined sentimentality of Paddy McAloon, whether in Andrew Phillips' susurrant vocals or through the serenity of "Courage, Traveller".

From a vocal and lyrical perspective, this album reminds me a lot of Sufjan Stevens. Though instrumentally this is something significantly more based around art and chamber pop, and while this is an interesting direction to take, there are aspects that leave something to be desired. I can see it maybe growing over the year.

Standout: The Archive
Favs: The branches of the tree, Coprolite Tip, Windfarm
Least fav: Wintering now
