WARMDUSCHER Vinyl & CDs

Review: Warmduscher fifth album is the band's most ambitious and eclectic work yet. Led by the inimiatble Clams Baker Jr and featuring Benjamin Romans Hopcraft, Adam J. Harmer, Marley Mackey, Paranoid London's Quinn Whalley and Bleu Ottis Wright, it masterfully blends gqom, hip-hop, jazz, punk-funk and disco pogo into a spellbinding mix. Produced by Ben Romans Hopcraft and Jamie Neville, the album opens with the Talking Heads-esque 'Fashion Week,' a joyous ode to fashion's die-hard enthusiasts and contains the also already well circulated singles 'Staying Alive' and 'Top Shelf'. Bulging with brutally honest lyrics and dazzlingly eclectic tracks, the album also features guest appearances from Irvine Welsh - who provides its spoken word intro - Lianne La Havas, Janet Planet, Jeshi and CouCou Chloe, adding to its diverse soundscape. Reflecting the energy of their legendary live shows, Too Cold To Hold pushes creative boundaries to their maximum.
