Our Take
ORCHIDS John Peel 08.05.90 Review: As I slipped on my favourite indie-pop socks and settled down with ORCHIDS' John Peel session from 1990, I couldn't help but feel like I was transported back to a time when floppy fringes and jangly guitars ruled the airwaves. This collection is a delightful snapshot of a band at the peak of their twee powers, with each track dripping in charm and whimsy. Opening with the infectious "Something for the Longing," ORCHIDS waste no time in showcasing their knack for crafting catchy melodies that stick in your head like bubblegum on a hot summer's day. The shimmering guitars and dreamy vocals on "Tiny Words" transport you to a world of rain-soaked streets and unrequited love, while "Given to the Wine" is a bittersweet ballad that tugs at the heartstrings. But it's not all jangle and melancholy – tracks like "What Will We Do Next" and "Sarah" inject a dose of infectious energy into the mix, with their upbeat rhythms and sing-along choruses guaranteed to get even the most stoic listener tapping their toes. Overall, ORCHIDS' John Peel session is a charming time capsule of an era when indie-pop reigned supreme, and a welcome reminder of the band's enduring appeal. So grab your cardigan, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let ORCHIDS whisk you away to a simpler, sweeter time.
