Lamb - 5 (review)

Lamb are one of my all-time favourite groups, and I'm not sure I'll ever understand why they aren't talked about in the same breath as Portishead and Massive Attack, aside from the fact that they shouldn't be talked about in the same breath, because they are so much more awesome. Opening track 'Another Language' sums up why I love them - breakbeats that any aspiring IDM producer should take a moment to check out, and Lou Rhodes's haunting vocals are as beautiful as ever. 'Build A Fire' takes their sound in a whole new direction, and from start to finish they barely put a foot wrong. Great comeback from a great band.

8.5/10

For fans of: Portishead, Massive Attac
