UK four-piece Dry Cleaning’s much anticipated sophomore album Stumpwork is this week’s PBS Feature Album.
As soon as Dry Cleaning finished their debut album New Long Leg, they immediately set about moving forwards. Having already started writing their second record before their first was released, they proposed to producer John Parish that they spend twice as much time on the follow-up.
Listen to Stumpwork and you can feel that increased boldness - vocals which coil tightly around deft and complex riffs, great meshes of instrumental texture and the willingness to launch into full-on abstraction. It is a heady mix that is entirely Dry Cleaning’s own, distinguishing from their contemporaries.
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from Stumpwork, plus PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on CD via this Tuesday's e-newsletter, so make sure you check your inbox!
