What we say about That Night, A Forest Grew, by The Clientele
This record left our Clint feeling ecstatic.
So last week I did a few reviews and highly recommended one record by Mt Repeater which Phil has just informed me was the worst selling record of the week. Oh well. Hopefully The Clientele have enough of a following that you will all flood out to buy this new EP thingy on Acuarela called 'That Night, a Forest Grew'. Not much to say really - I like everything The Clientele do and this is no different. For the uninitiated it's 60s-sounding baroque pop for fans of The Shins, The Zombies, XTC,The Orchids - stuff like that. If you like a good tune and lovely autumnal hazy sounds you are going to love it. I certainly love it and can't recommend it enough. Go buy - tell 'em Clint sent you.
What the label says about That Night, A Forest Grew, by The Clientele:
This is the third, and last, of a trilogy of E.P.s the Clientele have recorded for Acuarela. They have always used the Acuarela E.P.s as a way to stretch out between albums, to create a through-the-looking-glass version of the band that shadows the better-known history of their albums. 'Ariadne' experimented with drones and minimalism, 'The Lost Weekend' stretched the foggy sound of their debut to epic proportions. In contrast "That Night, a Forest Grew' is the most commercial and -shockingly- danceable thing they've ever recorded. Part Bacharach, part Television, part Orange Juice, the E.P. shares the pristine clarity, light and shade of 'God Save the Clientele', but adds a new element of summer pop perfection. This is The Clientele as a hazily remembered 1970s cartoon series, all distanced off-key colours; imaginary summer hits, radio waves beamed in from a dream-discotheque.
