Dec 14, 201080The album has an eerie, almost childlike innocence: 10 songs of stunning candour and understated beauty.
-
80Sky at Night simply distils and expands all Kloot's lovely strengths, from his taut, elegant tunes to resolutely bittersweet lyrics.
-
80Any band that can record something as impressive as the gently swelling Radiation deserves to be taken on their own merits. Even Elbow may have to doff their hats this time. [Sep 2010, p.106]
-
80A perfectly formed masterclass in early hours reflection. [Aug 2020, p.82]
-
80The intimacy of John Bramwell's writing is carefully preserved and the trio's abundant charm still lies in a simple melodic grace and spiky romanticisms of lines. [Aug 2010, p.120]
-
80These expertedly crafted songs do deserve a wider hearing, and if this album is to remain a hidden treasure, then it's the general public's loss in all honesty.
-
80I Am Kloot continue to trace their version of that voyage, recording its moments of beautiful regret and uplifting melancholy in tuneful tales that want to hang around for endless retelling, beguiling their listeners into believing they have the time for just one more.
-
60Whilst each track delivers exactly what is to be expected from an IAK album it is a little disappointing that there seems to have been no development from the previous outing.
-
Garvey has taken Kloot on tour and produced Kloot's latest (fifth) album, a record that captures Johnny Bramwell's late night tales--an elegant, brooding mix of barfly melancholy, cosmic inflection and self-deprecating regret--perfectly.
-
Unlike their previous efforts, there's not really a weak track or a moment wasted on Sky At Night.
