Our Take

Ah, The Durutti Column, the band that never quite fit in with the rest of the Manchester music scene. And honestly, thank goodness for that. Another Setting, their third studio album, is a perfect example of their unique and atmospheric sound.

From the opening track "Prayer", you can tell that this album is going to take you on a journey. The ethereal guitars and haunting vocals create a mood that is both melancholic and uplifting. It's like listening to the soundtrack of a dream you can't quite remember.

Tracks like "Opera I" and "Bordeaux Sequence" showcase Vini Reilly's incredible talent as a guitarist, with intricate melodies that seem to float effortlessly through the air. The sparse production allows each note to shine, painting a picture that is both intimate and expansive.

But it's not all introspective musings - songs like "Detail for Paul" and "Francesca" inject a bit of energy and groove into the mix, giving the album a dynamic range that keeps you engaged from start to finish.

Overall, Another Setting is a masterclass in mood and atmosphere. It's the kind of album that you'll want to listen to late at night, maybe with a glass of wine in hand, pondering the mysteries of the universe. So go on, give it a listen - you won't be disappointed.
