The Membranes Manchester, UK
Formed in 1978 in Blackpool, UK, The Membranes are post-punk originators who were part of the same world as bands like Joy

The group reformed in 2010 and have since made two highly idiosyncratic and acclaimed albums.

A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future.

Wildly rampant but at times poppy as anything. Nightingales mould those tracks into their own shapes where shifts of pace and mood are done in a way only they can do. And by the way THIS Nightingales album is a barnstorming classic. Add to that the weird Robert Lloyd stream of words ..such a pleasure to have them.
