From Hype Sticker:
Through the hazy daze of a smoky folk opus, Modern Studies craft rich soundtracks, stuttering Super-8 sketches from a washed-out world of melancholy, hand-tinted and tantalising.
'Utterly enchanting' - Mojo
Sweeping strings carry Modern Studies into unchartered terrain on this release, flying high above their psych-folk roots, it’s an epic journey that’s exquisitely delivered, transcending categories, nodding to Brubeck, Low, Talk Talk, Jim O’Rourke and Pentangle, making music that is ready to cross over in these modern times with songs of substance.
“Sensitive, smart, inventive, cultured, brimming with complex ideas” - Record Collector
