This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

That Steve Fanagan has been a busy chap again. Proprietor of Slow Loris records, a charmingly packaged Irish imprint who's limited releases have calmed many a furrowed brow. He's back under his Moose Eats Leaf guise for a brand new LP of home recorded introspection, exploratory guitar meanderings infused with some subtle psychedelic shades. I love this music for it's brittle & lilting, melancholic yet filled with curiosity. There's a couple of spots of cyclical repetition where you can just feel the thrum of wide eyed guitar strings yawning into the chasm of your soul, then he goes psychedelic campfire folk, taking you on one of those sensual journeys where the end is uncertain & you can feel your warm faithful hound twitching on your lap as it dreams of chasing feral cats round the woods on a moonlit night. Considering i rather like Voice of the Seven Woods, I don't find his drawn out epics quite as pure & realised as 'We Are Wolves', track 6 on this wonderful CD, 'Adrift'. There's sections inspired by the more recent Earth stuff, Yellow 6 & Godspeed's drifting interludes. Phil has to get Talk Talk into the equation but this is more freeform & organic. Space music for ferrets & badgers. Lovin' it. Limited to 50 all in unique spirographed card sleeves, making this a special & essential purchase.
