FIELD MUSIC
Flat White Moon
[Memphis Industries-2021]
Starting with their fifth album, 2016’s Commontime, Field Music added some indie funk to their angular, prog-informed but highly melodic pop/rock, resulting in their most accessible record to date.
On this, album number eight, they have weaved together all the elements that have previously characterized their sound in a possibly even more welcoming mix.
Once again the brothers Brewis (multi-instrumentalists David and Peter) have put together a collection of songs that sounds inviting and familiar while openly displaying their influences without slavish devotion to any which one in particular.
Highly recommended.
