Black Honey (CD)

Debut album by hotly tipped UK Alternative pop-rock band Black Honey. What are they like? Put it this way: if Lana Del Rey was (in) a rock band, it would sound like Black Honey. quot;What,quot; we note your reply (we have great hearing), quot;you mean like Lush?quot; Yes, Black Honey are quite Lush-ish. You might even say they're Lush-ous, only a bit classicist, less 4AD than Telstar. They blend, or rather create a burning pyre out of, girl-group pop and shoegazing guitar noise. They are fans equally of FX pedals and the lasting impact of a simple melody.
