After Agnes Obel’s Island of Doom, we take a different metaphorical direction with a song about not being alone, from the Vanishing Twin’s acclaimed 2019 album The Age Of Immunology – “we are side by side”. Fronted by vocalist Cathy Lucas, alongside Valentina Magaletti, Elliott Arndt, Phil MFU, and Susumu Mukai, the London and Margate band, with echoes of Stereolab, conjure a magical blend of electronica, lightly brushed percussion, bells and strings, ending in an otherworldly mix of gurgles, bleeps and voices. The record is available on Fire Records, as well as Bandcamp.
