(Full Time Hobby)The inventive English six-piece deliver another slice of whimsy, wit and gentle musical experimentationThe arrival of Tunng 20 years back was a gamechanger for British folk, allying its pastoral themes with gentle electronica and an often surrealist sense of humour. Sometimes it was folk horror on the high street as people were changed into hares; at others it became tripped-out domesticity. The group are still at it – a six-piece reunited around the core duo of Mike Lindsay and Sam Genders.Indeed, this eighth studio album, their first in five years, consciously returns them to early days, becoming something of a tribute to themselves; there is even the return of a favourite character, Jenny, still impatient for change. Their default setting remains tumbling acoustic guitars led by the soft-sung vocals of Genders, but backings remain as inventive as ever.
