Little Eden

‘Little Eden’ glows with vintage McCartney-esque couplets before rolling out a chiming signature riff on ‘As I Lay Down To Die’ and adopting Jimi-like phrasing on ‘And Away We Go’. “Harking back to the liberating songcraft of The Beatles, but with a jagged edge.” Classic Rock A psychedelically-hewn panoramic take on brutalism Britain punctuated with pure pop melodies and beautifully-observed English melancholy. This is an album that rekindles your love of music – from the harmonies that are oh-so Teenage Fanclub and Lemonheads, to the grunge and awe of Dinosaur Jr. “Still mixing pop, punk and psych to giddy effect.” The Guardian There’s perspective and retrospective tale-spinning where we wait “for the wonderful world to come” (©‘Start Burning’), an imaginary future soundtracked by the spirit of Arthur Lee, brought into focus with witty wordplay on songs that are littered with spine tingling guitar breaks. Just what you want from “the E17 psych guru.” MOJO A brand new album from national treasures The Bevis Frond.

After 35 years of making records under the Bevis Frond banner, 2021's Little Eden is rousing proof that the group's main man Nick Saloman hasn't lost a step.
