Modern Studies - Modern Studies - The Weight Of The Sun [Vinyl]
Barcode: 809236159816

New album from kosmiche folk-rock quartet Modern Studies. A glorious compendium of haunted disco hallelujahs, mercurial krautrock chorales, cosmic pop adagios and euphoric, resilient, anthems. The Weight of the Sun sees principal songwriters Emily Scott and Rob St John further their warm, esoteric field studies with Pete Harvey and Joe Smillie, as previously reconnoitred on Swell To Great (2016) and Welcome Strangers (2018).

The exact point where Fairport Convention meet Jim ORourke at a remote Scottish railway station. Tim Burgess

Melancholic magic& recalls Johnny Marrs hazier reveries and the febrile, electrified folk of Polly Harveys Let England Shake. UNCUT

New album from Setting the standards for intelligent pop Record Collector

There is a strange familiarity, and a welcome strangeness, in the quiet alchemy of Modern Studies.
