Hymn-like songs in the vein of PJ Harvey without the intrigue. Relaxing tones and beautiful harmonies whilst still providing an ominous atmosphere. Suffers from lack of diversity and without repeat listens hard to decipher between tracks. It might be predictable but vocal performance is strong.

Favourite tracks: Vague Ideas [] Vanishing Line
Least favourite tracks: 2002 [] Perseus
