Our Take

AND ALSO THE TREES' Virus Meadow is a hauntingly beautiful masterpiece that transports listeners to a dreamy, atmospheric world filled with ethereal melodies and haunting vocals. The band's unique blend of post-punk and folk influences creates a sound that is both mesmerizing and captivating.

From the moment the album's opening track "The Suffering of the Stream" kicks in, you are immediately drawn in by the band's mystical soundscapes and poetic lyrics. The hypnotic guitar lines and subtle percussion create a sense of otherworldliness that is impossible to resist.

Lead singer Simon Huw Jones' haunting vocals float effortlessly above the intricate instrumentation, adding an extra layer of mystery and depth to each song. Tracks like "Pan Domain" and "Midnight Garden" showcase the band's ability to create a lush, immersive listening experience that will leave you entranced.

Virus Meadow is a perfect example of AND ALSO THE TREES' ability to create music that is both introspective and expansive. It's an album that rewards repeated listens, revealing new layers and hidden treasures with each spin. So do yourself a favour and dive into the enchanting world of Virus Meadow - you won't be disappointed.

Formed in 1979, the band consists of guitarist Justin Jones, his brother Simon Jones on bass, Nick Havas on drums, and Steven Burrows on vocals. Their sound can be described as a unique blend of post-punk, folk and art rock, with a touch of ethereal beauty that sets them apart from their peers. With intricate guitar work, atmospheric synths, and Burrows' evocative vocals, And Also the Trees create a sonic landscape that transports listeners to another world. Their debut album "And Also the Trees" released in 1984, garnered critical acclaim and established them as pioneers of the gothic rock genre. Songs like "The Headless Clay Woman" and "The Critical Distance" showcase their ability to craft mesmerizing music that lingers long after the final notes fade. Despite their cult status and influence on bands like The Cure and The Smiths, And Also the Trees remain a hidden gem in the music industry. Their latest album "Born into the Waves" released in 2016, proves that they are still at the top of their game, delivering haunting melodies and introspective lyrics that captivate audiences. With a career spanning over four decades, And Also the Trees continue to defy categorization and push the boundaries of music. Their live performances are a testament to their artistry, with a stage presence that is both enigmatic and mesmerizing. In a world filled with cookie-cutter bands, And Also the Trees stand out as true originals, making them a must-listen for any music aficionado.
