Boyd’s ear for a melody, chipper demeanour and wide range of energetic stringed instrumentation and vocal arrangement was charmingly captivating.

		<description><![CDATA[Scotland&#8216;s indie-miserablist rockers The Twilight Sad returns with a brand new album that sees a slight change in the band&#8217;s sound. Listed as &#8216;anti-produced&#8216; by Andrew Weatherall (the man who helped shape Primal Scream&#8216;s &#8216;Screamadelica&#8216; club sound), this new direction features a colder sound that&#8217;s like a modern Joy Division.
