Smog or (Smog) hasn't been a favourite of mine since he slept with my mates girlfriend. All a bit nasty that and coupled with his dreadful recent output I had kind of given up on him. But against all odds the Harrogate born song minstrel comes good. This new album stands up well with his earlier good music and sounds like he's put a bit of effort in. Good songs, nice arrangements, yep Supper is a return to form.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Slipping and gliding, your hero has returned. (Smog) is back in the building. With him is his newest record. But he’s not going to sing it for you, no. Instead he’s going to play it for you. And so, with a press of a button - the new (Smog) album, ‘Supper’.

‘Supper’ will strike some of you as easy-listening (Smog) - which is simply proof that you (Smog) fans out there have hardened over the years. Sure, ‘Supper’ features soft-steel guitars, female harmony vocals, fluttering guitars, a sentimental ode to ‘Our Anniversary’, and, more heart-warming things packaged into it’s 43 plus minutes, but ... honestly ... it¹s still (Smog) isn’t it? That means sharp observations, a steady stream of humorous spectres, discomfiting intimacy and other heart-warming things packed into nine melody-filled tunes.

So basically, get ready to get split in two again. (Smog) is back, and ‘Supper’ is ready!
