Our Take

If you're looking for an album that's as wild and untamed as a pack of feral cats on a moonlit night, then look no further than LUMP's latest offering, "Animal." The brainchild of the brilliant Laura Marling and Mike Lindsay, this musical menagerie is a delightful trip through a sonic safari where the rules of conventional songwriting are thrown out the window faster than you can say "meow."

From the opening track, "Bloom at Night," listeners are thrust into a world where Marling's haunting vocals and Lindsay's otherworldly production combine to create a sound that is equal parts primal and ethereal. It's as if Kate Bush decided to front a psychedelic rock band made up entirely of woodland creatures - and the results are nothing short of magical.

But it's not just the quirky charm of the music that makes "Animal" stand out - the lyrics are a stroke of genius as well. Marling's poetic prowess is on full display here, as she weaves tales of love, loss, and longing that are equal parts heartbreaking and hilarious. One moment you'll find yourself nodding along in solemn agreement, the next you'll be laughing out loud at the sheer audacity of it all.

In short, "Animal" is a wild and wondrous ride that will leave you howling at the moon and begging for more. So grab your safari hat and get ready to embark on a musical adventure unlike any other - LUMP is here to take you on a journey you won't soon forget. So buckle up, buttercup, and prepare to be whisked away on a sonic safari that's sure to leave you clawing for more.

About the artist

LUMP

Ah, LUMP, the enigmatic duo comprising vocal powerhouse Laura Marling and producer extraordinaire Mike Lindsay. From their inception in 2018, this unlikely pairing has been turning heads and raising eyebrows with their unique blend of ethereal folk and experimental electronica. Marling's hauntingly beautiful vocals paired with Lindsay's intricate production create a sound that is at once familiar and otherworldly. Their debut self-titled album, released in 2018, was met with critical acclaim, with Pitchfork declaring it "a mesmerizing journey through soundscapes both lush and sparse." But LUMP is more than just a musical project; it's a whole vibe. With their surrealist visuals and whimsical stage presence, they bring a sense of magic and mystique to the world of music. It's like stepping into a dream where everything is just a little bit off-kilter, but in the best possible way. And let's not forget their latest release, "Animal," which sees LUMP pushing the boundaries even further. From the eerie opening track "Bloom at Night" to the pounding rhythms of "Nurture the Wild," this album is a testament to their willingness to experiment and evolve. So, if you're looking for a musical experience that is equal parts strange and beautiful, look no further than LUMP. They may be a little unconventional, but isn't that what makes them so special? Embrace the weirdness, embrace the magic, embrace LUMP.
