This sneaked up on me and became one of my faves last year. Imaginative textures and sounds throughout. Def one of the more interesting and thoughtful indie/r&b hybrids I've heard lately as far as proper bands go. I like how they trick you into thinking that something so inorganic should sound so natural.

I have faith they'll do a great follow-up album and ILM will stop ignoring them.

i saw them live recently as a number of my friends are really into them. i found them relatively dull and the vocals are very ugly - i'd place them closer to alt-j than the xx. "Pools" is a nice song though.

Anyone up on the new one?

I'm about to nom it in the EOY poll. I can handle the vocals on this one, plus it's got a great concept and the immaculate production. Yet ILX is sleeping on it. Sad.

I'm really enjoying the 2016 release. It's laid back, yet spunky and beautiful. I think some reviewers looked at it too closely.The sum is greater than the parts here, and it's got a lot of moving parts. I see the vocals as just another stylish instrument in the mix.
