Rating: ecstatic This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic.

THE WORKHOUSE have a new album out on Bearos Records called Flyover. I've heard this a few times now and it's a total grower as the more I hear it the more the goodness seeps through to my fat ears into my musical receptor in my brain... which converts it into smiles and goose pimples. It's good to have them back in my life...... For the unitiated it's post rock jim (but not as we know it...) with a healthy dose of the Cocteaus in there. Mind you that's exactly what Explosions In The Sky sound like. The difference being The Workhouse have a more of an 80's raincoat doom twinge about 'em. Everywhere you go there's sonic cathedrals (they're the new priests of the cathedral of noise you know)..... Have you been there? It's near Stoke... take a left and the Fringsbury bypass, you can't miss it. I went the other week. Fantastic anyway....... On track 4 (I'm too lazy to check the title) it sounds just like iLIKETRAINS and the singer sounds just like Patrick From the Kitchens of Distinction. Am loving this....

What the label says:

This is the follow up to their critically acclaimed debut, The End Of The Pier (Bearos041) released in 2003. The new album features 11 tracks which were showcased on their Doves support in 2005. Three of the tracks were featured on the last ever session recorded for John Peel in October 2004; Last Of The Big Songs, Boxing Day & Chancers. Aberdeen is not on the album but is still available as a split 7" with Inch Blue (Bearos052) Taking their influences from 80s bands like The Chameleons, Kitchens of Distinction and The Cocteau Twins they weave sweeping moodscapes full of passion and virtuosity. The occasional Ian Curtis-esque vocal track on the new album marks a progression in the breadth of their sound and their confidence in making this genre their own.
