I've heard bits and bobs of music by Midlake over the years, but nothing ever quite burrowed itself into my consciousness like Roscoe, Young Bride and subsequently the wole of their second album The Trials Of Van Occupanther.
Nearly twenty years on from that landmark album, Midlake are back with their sixth, with The Calling as their, er, calling card.
And it's pretty darn good three minutes.
I need to do some homework, clearly. Any recommendations for where to start with the post-Tim Smith Midlake catalogue (aka most of it)?
Can't help I'm afraid. I bought the one after Van Occupanther - can't remember its name - was very underwhelmed and never bothered after that. Still like the hit album though.
ReplyDelete'Fraid not, they've never really turned my head. I only really know the Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve remix
