“Taster” is the Beautiful, atmospheric lo-fi and mostly quiet, thoughful songs, with some fuzzy, jangly parts inbetween. If you like the music of Red House Painters, the quieter songs of Sebadoh and Ewan Dando, you will like this from the band Hovvdy. Great songs all through the album .While Taster already sits as one my favourite albums released this year, Hovvdy’s gloomy, downtempo masterpiece takes on even greater weight as the autumn finally comes ourway and these shrinking, days take its place. The mood throughout this record is decidedly downbeat too; you can almost smell the stark sense of isolation that permeates through every single track.
A prominent record in any season; an absolute must-have addition to your autumn listening. this album wraps you up like a blanket and makes you feel all kinds of love. Hovvdy is Charlie Martin and Will Taylor.
