Recorded during the same period as late year’s LP A Bit of Previous culminating in a batch of 30 songs, this 12th LP and follow-up brings further likeable, wistful, bittersweet indie pop by the longstanding Glasgow band fronted by Stuart Murdoch. Written by different members of the band, this second set sees a more varied selection of styles but still presents their distinctive, timeless sound of guitars, horns, flutes and clear, rapturous choruses and with more of a live, energetic feel with these songs generally recorded more as an ensemble. Lead single I Don’t Know What You See In Me, unusually is written by a non-band member Pete Ferguson. Other standouts include opener Juliet Naked, When We Were Very Young, Will I Tell You A Secret, So In The Moment, and the uplifting title track which closes the album. Out on Matador Records.
