    Like its predecessors, Plumb is polite and smart, arranging its unceasing collection of hooks like books on a shelf.

    Forget hidden depths, Plumb exposes every inch of the Brewises' brilliance.

    Intellectually and musically, it's more like a rose bush in winter: thorny, twisty, and hinting at tantalizing beauty. The more time you spend with this album, the easier it is to get caught.

    Field Music on"Plumb" combines the style of indie rock with the elements of classical music ("Start The Day Right", "Ce Soir"), or many different themes -such as the Mediterranean "A New Town", oriental "This Is The Picture" or strictly a capella "How Many More Times". Songs on the album all reminiscent of the Beatles - just listen to "Who'll Pay The Bills" or "Guillotine". The British quartet however, still have much to learn in this regard.… Expand
