    Taken as a whole, Deep England is a remarkable, memorable thing. Disquieting and disorientating for sure, yet offering plenty of strange, macabre pleasure.

    With Deep England, she drills into the marrow of a nation that in 2021 doesn’t really know itself and possibly doesn’t want to. The result is a fever dream splicing of Pan’s Labyrinth and a cider binge beneath an underpass that has got out of hand and turned unexpectedly nasty.

    Several tracks from Pastoral are radically reworked to become drum-free, drone-filled immersive soundscapes.

    A potent techno-pagan tapestry of intertwined voices, church bells, liturgical chants and occult spells. [May 2021, p.27]
  5. The Wire

    Boiling down the complexities and contradictions of the countryside to a succession of stiff choral hymns, a chance to understand and connect is lost. [Apr 2021, p.55]
