The Church Announce New Album Lacuna: Hear “Western”
The Church are back with fresh material, which is rather lovely news for anyone who's ever found themselves floating through one of their shimmering soundscapes. Nearly fifty years in and they're still churning out those distinctly ethereal, layered tracks that defined alternative radio back in the day, the kind of music that sounds equally at home on a late-night drive or a proper headphone session. For Cledvibes Radio listeners who appreciate craftspeople who refuse to rest on their laurels, this is a reminder that some artists just keep getting better with age. If you've not revisited the Church in a while, a new album's the perfect excuse to dive back in.
From Stereogum: Australian greats the Church have been making jangly, gauzy space-out music for nearly half a century now, and they were giants of the late-'80s college rock universe. I covered them in my Alternative Number Ones column a couple of years ago, and it wasn't even for "Under The Milky Way Tonight."
