Spook The Horses - People Use To Live Here - Pelagic Records PEL 085-V - New Zealand 2017



The second vinyl release from yet another Wellington band, this latest record is actually their third. I have their "Rainmaker" LP from 2015, but I have not given it a lot of attention as the screamy vocals did put me off a bit. They have certainly toned things down a bit for this latest effort and their "Post Rock" has become a lot more atmospheric and the singing is now normal, making for a much more accessible record. There are plenty of lovely touches on these tracks with some wonderful airy guitar melodies weaving through the slowish music. Very good record. Rating 4/5.
