    Personally, although I can understand the appeal, as the instrumentation is pretty well done, overall, this album just wasn't that great to me. I felt as if I had to force my way through it, as it was pretty dull.

    Strong 4/10 for me

    An enthralling, multi-layered listen. [Aug 2020, p.109]

    McFarlane paints elegant, jazz-literate shapes over digital beats, syncopated hand drums and glitchy systems noise.[Sep 2020, p.32]

    Thoughtful, innovative, and reflective, ‘Songs Of An Unknown Tongue’ is a special record, one that offers up questions and revelations in equal measure.
