This is actually pretty good; a good mix of influences somewhere between indie rock with electronics bits and beats. I get that the voice can be irritating, but it fits well the atmosphere of the album.

I’m not usually a fan of falsetto vocals on a record, but there was a point that this one won me round, and that was when they started singing about girls from Shipley. Apparently Wild Beasts were originally from Kendall, but are now based in Leeds so that counts as just about local to me. The music also grew on me too, rapidly promoting this band to a solid contender for a Saturday afternoon at a music festival on a sunny day slot.
