ALBUM REVIEW: Field Music – Flat White Moon

Memphis Industries

Released: 23.04.21

Off-kilter pop kings Field Music once again prove deserving of such an accolade, Flat White Moon is an album which fuses serious and sombre lyrics with grooves that you cannot refuse. There is an undertone of darkness that runs through the record, particularly seen in the likes of Out Of The Frame and Not When You’re In Love. The only vague glimmer of hope appearing in the form of You Get Better.

However, through this darkness come these incredible tracks that feel so effortlessly exciting. The band retain their signature sound, but it feels somewhat stripped back, it’s a new and different side to Field Music. Flat White Moon is by far some of the Sunderland band’s finest work to date.
