    A damaged but delightful long-player, then, perfect for fans of Daughter and Camera Obscura.

    Amelia Rivas and Christian Pinchbeck were "on" before they recorded their debut album, but are now very much "off," a situation which adds a fraught edge to the woozy Sky Swimming. [Jun 2014, p.76]

    While the pleasures of Sky Swimming are mostly aesthetic ones, with a bit of pruning you’ll find a clutch of wonderfully ornate songs that bear repeated listening.

    In all, Sky Swimming is a lovely, impressionistic debut that suggests Elephant are on the cusp of delivering even more.
