We knew they wouldn’t remain unsigned forever but it makes for even better news that it was Bella Union that finally snapped up Lanterns on the Lake. They remain one of a select few bands (off hand Venice Is Sinking also belong there) that can have us whimpering like an overtired baby. Much of this is down to their melancholy approach and the way their arrangements are so gorgeously assembled. ‘Lungs Quicken’ came out last year and is another example of their majesty, who’d have thought something so soft and fragile could have such a devastating effect. A band we’ll always treasure. KD
