And Also The Trees
The Devil’s Door
Self Released
Come slip into the sweetest of cold wave comas courtesy of macabre mainstays And Also The Trees. Having toured and recorded with The Cure 45 years ago these post-punk poets have produced possibly one of the most beautiful albums we will ever be blessed with in ‘The Devil’s Door’. Prove. Us. Wrong. So dark and dreamy, it sounds like Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds slow waltzing with Jefferson Airplane. Trippy, terrifying, and utterly tantalising. Such mellow vocals dripped lavishly over mesmerising musical backdrops of dark jazz and enchanting orchestral elements. ‘The Devil’s Door’ is a story of songs that need listening to all together – there’s to be no skipping here. Settle down somewhere with a glass of something nice and let these gorgeously curious and gripping soundscapes wash over you in their entirety.
