Now from Lancashire we have THE BOATS and their new album Tomorrow Time (CD only). A clicking glitching rhythm section delicately holds the soft and genteel wave of sound that is pieced together with Rhodes piano, samples and guest vocals form Chris Stewart and Elaine Reynolds. It makes me feel like being in an old persons spooky house, safe by the fire, with its crispy and original sound rumbling in the cold corridor outside. It ain't gonna blow you off, but it will calm when you down when you fall through the door of another Christmas do without a kiss from the receptionist you've held a torch for all year.... everyone should have one, amen
The 3rd album (and their most defined statement yet) from UK duo THE BOATS, following the much lauded 'We Made it for You'. In reference to the artwork, 'Tomorrow Time' is a sort of Christmas card - at least, it's the Christmas card you wish you could send. With titles such as 'You're an Idiot' and 'A Sincere Fuck You', it's a far cry from garden-bound Robins and snowy Idylls, however The Boats have not injected their loving music with this harsh sentiment: you'll be pleased to know that they're as warm and as delicate as ever and are joined by vocalists Chris Stewart and Elaine Reynolds who aid in the band's quest to weave the most pleasing micro-pop yet borne on our fair earth. Warmly recommended!
