A hazy, hungover elegance hangs over these recordings, trading the band's signature blues grit for a sophisticated, artful British pop craftsmanship. The arrangements feel light and intricate, layering the mournful wheeze of an accordion and delicate woodwinds over a dry, acoustic-leaning rhythm section that captures London in a morning fog.
