The ten songs which make up Everything Last Winter drift along without saying anything at all.
-
They manage to create a hefty mass of synth'n'guitar led sound, while remaining friendly and accessible.
-
The repeated songwriting formula becomes predictable, and loses some of its power.
-
Q MagazineMood music for goat-sacrificing pagan rituals. [May 2007, p.124]
-
UncutSometimes, in hunting a mid-point between noise maelstrom and Espers-style chamber psychedelia, Fields come out sounding merely ordinary. [May 2007, p.90]
-
As big as the heart-swelling hooks get, though, Fields are more memorable when they let their early-1970s folk ghosts creep into the corners of their songs like dusty cobwebs.
-
Unfortunately though, Fields never quite reach such dizzy heights on the rest of the album, preferring instead to apply their considerable talents to creating numerous prog-outs that lack the heroic factor of their first single.
-
Everything Last Winter loses itself slightly in the oversaturated field of worthy emulators, the record could find its place soundtracking the ABC drama you call a life.
