Our Take

Stackridge's self-titled album, now in an expanded edition, is a delightful romp through the whimsical world of British prog-folk-rock. From the opening track "Fundamentally Yours," with its catchy melodies and cheeky lyrics, to the closing notes of "Slark," this album is a journey through eccentricity and charm.

The band's playful nature shines through on tracks like "32 West Mall," a jaunty ode to a fictional address that somehow manages to capture the essence of a bygone era. The musicianship on display here is top-notch, with intricate arrangements and unexpected twists and turns keeping listeners on their toes.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Purple Spaceships Over Yatton," a whimsical tale of intergalactic travel that perfectly captures the band's off-kilter sense of humour. The lyrics are both hilarious and thought-provoking, making this track a true gem in the Stackridge catalogue.

Overall, Stackridge's self-titled album is a joyous celebration of all things quirky and unconventional. With its catchy tunes, clever lyrics, and impeccable musicianship, this album is a must-listen for fans of British prog-folk-rock. So grab your top hat and monocle, and take a trip with Stackridge to a world where the unexpected is always just around the corner.
