When i heard that STILL CORNERS were releasing a new album, i didn't really need to listen to it first before buying it. Creatures Of An Hour, their previous one, is an album that i totally love and that i still spin quite often. So i just assumed that this new one, STRANGE PLEASURES, was in the same vein. And it is. It reminds me a bit of Chromatics, M83, Lana del Rey and Hundred In The Hands, but still more dreampop than electro. There's a great bit of Cocteau Twins influences and ever since i first heard their debut album, because of the way Tessa Murray sings, i can't help thinking of the Julee Cruise song Falling (from the Twin Peaks series). And there are definitely a few of those "David Lynch-moments" on this album once again. Brilliant stuff.
