Our Take

The Unthanks have always been known for their unique blend of folk with a contemporary twist, but with their latest album, 'The Unthanks With Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band,' they've taken things to a whole new brass-tastic level. From the moment you press play, you're transported to a whimsical world where traditional folk melodies collide with the bold, brassy sounds of a full brass band. It's like stepping into a surreal carnival where the music is both hauntingly beautiful and infectiously fun. Lead singers Rachel and Becky Unthank's ethereal vocals float effortlessly over the rich, symphonic arrangements, creating a sonic landscape that is both grandiose and intimate. Tracks like "Magpie" and "Mount The Air" showcase the band's impeccable musicianship and ability to weave together intricate layers of sound. But it's not all serious business – there are moments of sheer joy and whimsy scattered throughout the album, reminding you that music should always be a playful, exploratory experience. The brass band adds a whole new dimension to The Unthanks' sound, elevating their already impressive discography to new heights. So grab your top hat and monocle, dear reader, and prepare to be swept away by the delightful cacophony of 'The Unthanks With Brighouse & Rastrick Brass Band.' It's a musical journey like no other, and one that will leave you tapping your toes and grinning from ear to ear.
