Kristopher Cook reviews the exemplary new release from the London art-rock band
Because Music
Released: 21.02.21
Space and time seem like such meek concepts when breaking down a Django Django record, especially on this fourth LP, which finds the London art-rock outfit scattered across axis for your listening pleasure. Escape entropy is the mission should you willingly accept; bidding bon voyage to despair, constraints, small town life, dreams and even the earth itself.
Spirals serves as that blast-off moment, leaving the door wide open for the likes of Waking Up and The Ark to float unrestricted despite appearing off-base. Glowing In The Dark is a fine addition to the Django Django saga, shedding light on what lies as above and so below. Where does it rank in the catalogue? Bobbing somewhere near the top for sure.
