A Sunny Day in Glasgow: Ashes Grammar
Label: Mis Ojos Discos
Yes, they’ve got the shoegaze guitar sound down perfectly, but what makes this band interesting is the magnitude of their ambition (this is a 22-track opus) and how much more than guitar they occasionally throw into the mix: electronic loops, ukulele, skirling keyboards, Krautrockish beats. But it’s the ethereal vocals of the twin sisters up front who give this band its greatest identity, and for sheer beauty of sound it’s hard to beat their second full-length. (Steve)
