An underwhelming second album that misfires more than not.

The Joy Formidable prove that having stadium-sized ambitions needn’t neuter originality.
-

The boffin-rocking trio’s debut displays dizzying craftsmanship.
-
Big old heaps of bombast litter album two from the grizzled Southampton rockers.

A tighter and more cohesive album than its maker’s debut – and perhaps more impressive.
-
Something as bizarrely brilliant as this debut needs to be savoured.
-
Filled with enough dark delights to send tingles up and down your spine.
-
New York psychedelic band rages against the machine with noisy assault.
-
Flashes of inspiration aren’t enough to make for a wholly convincing return.
-
A telling insight into its creator’s unconventional mind.
-
Don’t let their famous friends put you off – this is a fine dance-rock album.
