The seventh Lucksmiths studio album and follow-up to the excellent 'Naturaliste' is, dare we say it, the best Lucksmiths release yet! As always, there are lots of guitars, some soothing basslines, and a singing drummer who's far better than Phil Collins, but this time there's also a horn section having a party, some fiery organs, a string section who dig Phil Spector, and a lazy pedal steel. Featuring the “Hiccup” and “San Francisco” singles as well as live favourites “Sunlight in a Jar”, “The Music Next Door” and “Young and Dumb”, this album topped many end-of-year lists.
