Maribou State - Portraits

Review by Josh Suntharasivam

Impressively easy to like, refreshingly difficult to get tired of»

With a sound as quintessentially British as the picturesque Hertfordshire village that they call home, Maribou State release their debut album 'Portraits'. 'Portraits' sees Chris Davids and Liam Ivory exemplify the sort of rare but precious sonic harmony that has made their name so far: equal parts emotive instrumentation and sturdy rhythms, stark soundscapes and rich textures. Featuring longtime collaborator Pedestrian (2nd Drop / Born Electric) as well as vocalists Holly Walker and Jono McCleery, the album takes on a subtle dynamism and natural warmth redolent of Gold Panda and Sohn.
