These progressive indie rockers from the UK always manage to keep fans riveted by each new release, and to keep critics guessing and, ultimately, highly impressed. This new recording evolved out of a project Field Music undertook for the Imperial War Museum. These songs—which range from shimmering ballads to stomping funk to head-spinning math rock—were inspired by WWI and its aftermath. We encounter everything from air-traffic control to gender-reassignment surgery to the Dada movement as we hear "Coffee or Wine," "A Change of Heir," "A Shot to the Arm," "Do You Read Me?" and more. You get 19 transfixing tracks on CD or transparent red gatefold vinyl (with download)! Memphis Industries.
