Meursault - Nothing Broke EP

Amongst the 'bigger' songs on Meursault's debut album, A Single Stretch of Land showed that songwriter and vocalist Neil Pennycook can do pared-back and restrained as well as he does full-throated and full-on electro. This gorgeous EP is further proof of their versatility - give them a laptop or give them a banjo, harmonium and some handclaps, and the end result is equally as stunning. Red Candle Bulb is a cover of the song by the sublime Withered Hand, of whose band Pennycook is also an integral part. Part 1 and 2 of William Henry Miller will appear again in a fuller form, but for now get your hands on this limited edition release any way you can. Essential listening.
