From The Pyre (CD)
The Last Dinner Party
Amoeba Review
The Last Dinner Party is back with the eagerly-awaited From The Pyre. The British rock band delivers on the promise of their wildly creative debut, with these evocative, dark, and imaginative baroque pop tales. Vocal influences from Kate Bush and Siouxsie Sioux add to an alluring atmosphere on the swirling "Second Best." Moody indie gets infused with a bit of '70s country rock twang on "This Is the Killer Speaking." Choral harmonies and keening strings bring an otherworldly sense to the strangely comforting "The Scythe." Drawing inspiration from archetypes (sailors, saints, killers), The Last Dinner Party proves once again they're among the best storytellers in contemporary music.
