mannot by Michaela Annot May 12th, 2005

Engineers stand proudly and firmly out of sync with the rest of the rushed and urgent pop of today. There's is not a world of jagged up-down guitars or North Easterly yelps. It's all about building something a little bigger.

'Home_' is a blissful, soaring song that takes its harmonies to an almost menacingly beautiful place. Swathes of vocals and heaps of reverb jostle with pounding drums, swooping violins and a lightly strummed guitar.

Just the remedy to fight unseasonal weather. Lie back and think of England.
