What is it about Tunng? Why are they soooo good? They have the magic that's why. Precious few bands achieve what they do. Simple, beautiful & lovingly layered songs that take you to another place. A land carpeted with woodland creatures, the finest wine, the prettiest girls, all imbued with a quietly sinister spirit, no malevolence, probably just mischief & a glinty eyed love of life. Majestic hazy melodies, perfect sunshine folk, charming samples, spine tingling effects, fascinating organic percussion (seashells, chimes, walrus fangs, dried eye of newt etc) These people are the Boards Of Canada of folk. A customer in love with the debut, 'Mothers daughter..' enquired whether we thought this newie 'Comments On The Inner Chorus' is as great. Well, it probably will be when we've heard it a few dozen times. It's a hard one to better, Bruce. There's a reprise halfway of  a track from the debut called 'Jenny again' & it fits so snugly in there that I can confidently say this will stand up head & shoulders with it's predecessor with confidence. Future folk for the special people. Leave yr boring Adem records at home & embrace the lay of the land, my son. LP/CD (CD has 2 extra tracks on exclusive to us little indies!)
