'Ocean from Above' ★★
The third studio release from Seagull is far from upbeat. It is a musical journey that sits closer towards the introspective and melancholic end of the spectrum; numbing the senses amid swells of regret and longing. Anhedonia is particularly poignant as guitarist, vocalist and producer, Chris Bolton, describes an inability to feel pleasure. There are equally haunting undertones during It's Spring, while Unclaimed Luggage is as close to a breath of fresh air as possible for these guys. The tracks may not be individually memorable in terms of lyrics or melody, but by stripping back the layers, each has a vulnerability about it that transcends time and place.
