Black Holes In the Sand
“When Warp records released Gravenhurst's *Flashlight Seasons* earlier this year, the release was unfairly raked beneath 2004's already unwieldy pile of avant-folk artifacts, despite the fact that the lineage of Nick Talbot's atmospheric songcraft could more accurately be traced back through bands like The Smiths or Slint than to established folk sources. So now, months later, Talbot and his Graven”
Fires In Distant Buildings
“Flatest record from Warp's hushed, quietly effective folk-rock band.”
Flashlight Seasons
“Warp Records takes a surprising turn away from glitch-powered electronica with the delicate second LP from this serene Bristol-based folkie.”
The Western Lands
“Nick Talbot mines the pleasant middle between noise and folk, his experiments in gentle psychedelia a warm counterbalance to the menacing mood his songs otherwise strike.”
The Ghost in Daylight
“Continuing to explore themes of "compulsion, degradation, and the possibility of transcendence," the Bristol musician's first LP since 2007 adds an icy despair to his earlier folk-oriented releases.”
Wavelength is the Letterboxd for music.
