Sons of Noel and Adrian – Sons of Noel and Adrian
“Avoiding the pitfalls of excessive knob-twiddling, the Brighton collective’s dense live sound is excellently captured on record, conflicting harmonies crashing together like waves against a rocky shore, whilst delicate, reedy vocals skim the surface like a careless hand breaking the surface of a bottomless lake.
It’s predominantly string based – guitars, cellos, violas and violins dart around each other like jostling, shimmering creatures of the deep – while drums, whistles, pianos and glockenspiels (plus a host of other instruments I hesitate to even attempt to name) gently intertwine themselves around the layered male / female vocals, before subtly vanishing like a secret lover sneaking into the grey light of dawn.” – DrownedinSound.com
