The duo of Verity Susman and Matthew Simms (formerly of Electrelane and WIRE) locked themselves away in a studio in a barn secluded deep in the woods in southwestern France and re-emerged with a beautiful, unusual record that is both melodic and unconventional. For such an ambitious album it’s striking that it was written, performed, recorded and mixed solely by the two of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eSounding like an unearthed classic, MEMORIALS twist their influences into their own unmistakable sound. Imagine Nico singing with Can produced by David Axelrod and you’re somewhere in the right ballpark. The record draws inspiration from a wide range of music including folk, dub, post punk, experimental tape music, 60s soul, garage rock, 70s spiritual jazz and Canterbury prog.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eThis attention to detail in their sound meant finding several other studios to get what they needed to record with, including a harpsichord at 4AD’s studio in London and a vibraphone and vintage Leslie speaker in Stereolab drummer Andy Ramsay’s studio Press Play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-ligatures: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eVerity’s distinctive, unadorned singing is a focal point of the record, moving from tender to wild. Her vocal melodies quickly become earworms, providing the tuneful heart around which the songs’ more unorthodox elements are arranged, which is where Matthew’s unconventional approach to recording and production comes to the fore.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;
