Two years after her first two releases, Kate Bush took her career into her own hands and produced Never For Ever.  Though at the time she was younger than 21, Bush confidently became the  careful, experimental studio-only artist she remained for the remainder  of her career. Bush created a marriage of groundbreaking,  up-to-the-minute technology with little-used acoustic instruments. She  also tempered the little girl voice that was her trademark to produce a  work of brilliance. Never for Ever opens with Babooshka, a song that sets an auspicious stage for what follows. Her spiritual fascination continues with Blow Away and All We Ever Look For. The true highlights of this album are the lilting waltz of Army Dreamers, as well as Breathing,  a song about an unborn baby who reports on a nuclear holocaust from  within its mother's womb. This rich album hints at the many delights  that were to follow in Bush's career.","brand":"Fish People","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39407360770101,"sku":"SKU-1066","price":26.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/products\/Kate-Bush-Never-For-Ever.jpg?v=1740670455"},{"product_id":"nick-drake-five-leaves-left","title":"Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's little wonder why Drake felt frustrated at the lack of commercial success his music initially gathered, considering the help he had on his debut record. Besides fine production from Joe Boyd and assistance from folks like Fairport Convention's Richard Thompson and his unrelated bass counterpart from Pentangle, Danny Thompson, Drake also recruited school friend Robert Kirby to create most of the just-right string and wind arrangements. His own performance itself steered a careful balance between too-easy accessibility and maudlin self-reflection, combining the best of both worlds while avoiding the pitfalls on either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result was a fantastic debut appearance, and if the cult of Drake consistently reads more into his work than is perhaps deserved, Five Leaves Left is still a most successful effort. Having grown out of the amiable but derivative styles captured on the long-circulating series of bootleg home recordings, Drake imbues his tunes with just enough drama -- world-weariness in the vocals, carefully paced playing, and more -- to make it all work. His lyrics capture a subtle poetry of emotion, as on the pastoral semi-fantasia of \"The Thoughts of Mary Jane,\" which his soft, articulate singing brings even more to the full. Sometimes he projects a little more clearly, as on the astonishing voice-and-strings combination \"Way to Blue,\" while elsewhere he's not so clear, suggesting rather than outlining the mood. Understatement is the key to his songs and performances' general success, which makes the combination of his vocals and Rocky Dzidzornu's congas on \"Three Hours\" and the lovely \"'Cello Song,\" to name two instances, so effective. Danny Thompson is the most regular side performer on the album, his bass work providing subtle heft while never standing in the way of the song -- kudos well deserved for Boyd's production as well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Island","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39407472541749,"sku":"SKU-2058","price":27.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/products\/Nick-Drake-Five-Leaves-Left.webp?v=1785339190"},{"product_id":"adele-21","title":"Adele -  21","description":"Adele's 2009 debut album, 19, was a Grammy-winning smash hit that revealed the singer\/songwriter's knack for bittersweet soul and folk-infused love songs that brought to mind an infectious mix of Dusty Springfield and Terry Callier. The album earned her a ton of fans, and interest was high for the inevitable follow-up. In many ways, her sophomore album, the similarly age-appropriate-titled 21, is a continuation of the sounds and themes Adele was working with on 19. She is still the bluesy pop diva with a singer\/songwriter's soul and seemingly bottomless capacity for heartbreak. If the tastefully organic production and overabundance of well-known co-writers come off a bit too on-the-nose in terms of delivering to fan expectations, then the best thing the album does is to showcase Adele's titanic vocal ability, which -- more than a few times on 21 -- is simply spine-tingling. Last time around we got the gauzy, Callier-esque folk-soul ballad \"Daydreamer\" to slowly draw us into the album; here, Adele immediately injects us with the propulsive gospel fever-blues anthem \"Rolling in the Deep.\" While the track certainly owes a heavy debt to the punk-blues of Beth Ditto and the Gossip, it is also ridiculously sexy and one of the best singles of any decade -- and, unfortunately, completely sets the bar way too high for everything else on 21. An inordinate amount of the material on 21 is about yearning for lost love. In fact, the centerpiece of the album, the mega-ballad showstopper \"Take It All\" -- co-written by her \"Chasing Pavements\" partner Francis White -- begins with Adele proclaiming \"Didn't I give it all?\" Delivered starkly at first with Adele set against simple piano accompaniment and later backed by a gospel choir, it's an instant-classic sort of song in the tradition of \"The Rose,\" \"And I Am Telling You I Am Not Going,\" and \"All by Myself\" that could stand over the years as a career landmark for the singer and a cathartic moment for fans who identify with their idol's Pyrrhic lovelorn persona. For others, over the course of the album, that persona and the insistence of track after track of heartbreak can get a bit alienating. Ultimately, however, Adele does give us her all on 21, and for now that is enough.","brand":"XL Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39407504228405,"sku":"xllp520","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/files\/Adele-21.jpg?v=1687535374"},{"product_id":"adele-25","title":"Adele - 25","description":"Autobiography is baked into Adele's art. She called her first album 19, naming it after her age at the time of writing, and like a musical, millennial Michael Apted, each successive album represented another chapter in her life's story. Fueled by heartbreak, her roiling 2011 record 21 ushered in her adulthood and superstardom, two acts that were instrumental in the creation of 25, the 2015 album purportedly documenting her mid-twenties. Between 21 and 25, Adele fell in love and started a family, an event that would surely be grist for a memoirist's mill if Adele was as confessional a singer\/songwriter as she appears, but she is not. Like 21 before it, the love that flows through 25 is either curdled or lost, love that can no longer replenish or nourish. It is certainly not the kind of love that would arise from a satisfying, stable relationship, but it is indeed the kind of love that is recognizable from 21: love that hurts, not heals. While her themes may remain the same, Adele isn't the same singer as she was in 2011, nor is 25 a carbon copy of 21. Success has given her the confidence to abandon any lingering Amy Winehouse influence, taking along with it any sense of swing or sass. It isn't so much that Adele doesn't take risks -- she's hip enough to enlist Haim\/Charli XCX's producer to helm \"When We Were Young,\" a song co-written with hotly tipped sensitive soul Tobias Jesso, Jr., and she brings in Danger Mouse to help orchestrate the neo-gospel of \"River Lea.\" But she's so devoted to ballads, ballads determined to convey grace and strength in the face of loss that she winds up residing in a middle of the road, which makes her seem much older than the quarter century of the title. Adele doesn't help matters by dwelling on the passage of time, repeatedly returning to the idea that she ain't a kid anymore. It's a sentiment that suits a singer many years past 25 yet also suggests a bit of savvy on her part: these are songs that are meant to be heard -- and sung -- for years after the album's initial release, gathering resonance with the passage of time. Fittingly, 25 also plays better over the long haul, its march of slow songs steadily revealing subtle emotional or musical distinctions. Make no mistake, all 11 songs are of a piece -- they're shaded by melancholy, gaining most of their power through performance -- but that cohesive sound only accentuates how Adele has definitively claimed this arena of dignified heartbreak as her own.","brand":"XL Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39407504293941,"sku":"xllp740","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/files\/Adele-25.jpg?v=1687535378"},{"product_id":"neil-young-harvest","title":"Neil Young - Harvest","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased in February 1972, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eHarvest\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e was Neil Young’s third solo album and is one of the most successful and well-loved albums in his long career.

Through it all, Dessner has brought together an unlikely community of musicians that share his impulse to connect, celebrate and, most of all, process emotion and experience through music.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis generous spirit and desire to push music forward has never been more deeply felt than on Big Red Machine’s “How Long Do You Think It’s Gonna Last?,” the second album from Dessner’s ever-morphing project with Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon. In 2008, while assembling material for the charity compilation “Dark Was the Night,” Dessner sent Vernon a song sketch titled “big red machine”. Vernon interpreted “big red machine” as a beating heart and finished the song accordingly — a metaphor Dessner says “still sticks with me today. This project goes to many places and is always on some level about experimentation, but it shines a light on why I make music in the first place, which is an emotional need. It’s one of my therapies and one of the ways I interrogate the past.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2018, Big Red Machine’s self-titled debut album evolved from improvisation and what Dessner calls “structured experimentalism,” with an ear toward building tracks that would work well in a live setting alongside visual elements. When Dessner and Vernon started the Eaux Claires Music Festival in 2015, they staged the original “Big Red Machine” as an improvisation-based performance piece. They later took that show to the PEOPLE collective’s Berlin residency and festival, and to Dessner’s Haven Festival in Copenhagen. “Big Red Machine started as this thing we would do for fun, and we fell in love with the feeling of it,” says Dessner.” Vernon agrees: “I remember it feeling really easy, but we never knew what would happen. It was exciting. As time went on, we just kept doing things together. And our friendship has grown strong, alongside all the collaborative stuff.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew Big Red Machine material began taking shape in spring 2019, when Vernon came to visit Dessner at Long Pond. The first week produced songs such as “Reese,” “8:22am” and eventual album opener “Latter Days,” a haunting number sung by Vernon and Anaïs Mitchell that set the emotional tenor for what was to come. “It was clear to her that the early sketch Justin and I made of Latter Days was about childhood, or loss of innocence and nostalgia for a time before you’ve grown into adulthood — before you’ve hurt people or lost people and made mistakes. Anaïs defined the whole record\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen she sang that, as these same themes kept appearing again and again,” Dessner says. In the ensuing months, Vernon and Dessner would meet up when they could, and in the meantime, Dessner developed the existing material and wrote new instrumental tracks which he sent Vernon, always eager to hear what he would receive back.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Justin is incredibly gifted, but he’s also disruptive in the best way,” says Dessner, pointing to the first note of the song “Birch” as a prime example. “It’s absolutely brilliant, but it was very surprising when I heard it the first time. I can’t tell you what that interval is. There are many moments working with him where your head hits the wall in amazement like that.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the early stages of the pandemic, Swift approached Dessner to work with her on what would become the sister albums “folklore” and “evermore.” Dessner describes this period as a “creative blur,” during which he’d be writing material for Swift and Big Red Machine simultaneously. “I think this was an intense growing period for me, I was learning so much from Taylor and the process. Along the way, I shared all of our unfinished Big Red Machine songs with her and she really found them inspiring and gave me so much positive feedback and encouragement,” he says. “I think that helped \u003cspan\u003eme \u003c\/span\u003erealize how connected this Big Red Machine music was to everything else I was doing and that I was always supposed to be chasing these ideas. I was finding new sounds and ways of working through these songs. I just hadn’t been able to finish them. So, I did.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond Vernon and Swift’s encouragement, many of Dessner’s previous collaborators and friends show up for him here, continuing the reciprocal exchange of ideas that has come to define his creative community. Songs feature guest vocals and writing contributions from artist friends including Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold (“Phoenix”), Ben Howard and This Is The Kit (“June’s a River”), Naeem (“Easy to Sabotage’), Sharon Van Etten, Lisa Hannigan and My Brightest Diamond’s Shara Nova (“Hutch,” a tune inspired by Dessner’s late friend, Frightened Rabbit frontman Scott Hutchison) and Swift herself (“Birch” and “Renegade,” the latter an instant-classic Taylor earworm summed up by the poignant lyric “Is it insensitive for me to say \/ get your shit together so I can love you.” The song was recorded in Los Angeles at the Kitty Committee studio in March 2021, the same week when Swift and Dessner took home the GRAMMY for Album of the Year for “folklore.”)\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This is all music I generated, but it is interesting to hear how different people relate to it, or how different voices collide with it,” Dessner says. “That’s what makes it special. With everyone that’s on this record, there’s an openness, a creative generosity and an emotional quality that connects it all together.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs he continued writing prolifically on his own, Dessner noticed a theme emerging -- the idea of sitting with the uncomfortability of personal and family darkness from his childhood and reflecting on how emotional issues he dealt with growing up have reverberated through his adult life. It became clear that some of these he’d need to sing himself; songs such as “The Ghost of Cincinnati” and “Magnolia” address the disintegration of marriage and family and mental health, asking pointed questions of himself and those closest to him. “Brycie” is an ode to his aforementioned twin and National bandmate, who picked up on the musical vibes immediately when Dessner played the song for him for the first time backstage at a National show in Washington D.C.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“He picked along to it with me and it immediately sounded like Aaron and Bryce playing the guitar in the basement as kids, which was my intent,” Dessner remembers. “The words mean a lot to me. It’s about my childhood with Bryce, and how I had pretty severe depression in high school. He was the one who kept me going and took care of me until I was back on my feet. I’ve lost close friends to depression and this song is about how important it was that Bryce was there for me at that time and is still here.” In addition to being one of the more lyrically significant tracks on the album, Dessner says singing it himself felt like an important act of self-acceptance.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I always sing under my breath when I write music, but I usually hand it off to [National vocalist] Matt [Berninger] or others” he says. “When you’re in a band for so long and somebody else is that person, you come to rely on it and I’ve always loved Matt’s voice and his words. But singing ‘Brycie’ myself helped rewire my brain to realize that maybe Big Red Machine is the project that not only enables me to create songs with other people, but also sometimes finish songs on my own.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecalling sessions at Sonic Ranch in Texas when Dessner recorded his vocal takes, Vernon says, “Aaron showed me ‘Brycie’ a couple years ago now. I was like, this is beautiful, and you should do more singing. Not only would it be good for the future of your songwriting, but your voice sounds really good to me. It was exciting to see him flourish in that way — to now be a part of that process and realize the hardships in that and also the victories. On this record, he’s leading the charge, wholly and completely.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusically, “How Long Do You Think It’s Gonna Last?” features what Dessner calls maybe the “clearest distillation” of his varying songwriting and production styles. Songs like “Reese,” the Dessner-sung “Magnolia” and the elegiac “Hutch” are built on the kinds of tear-jerking piano melodies millions of fans have come to love from The National, but then move at their own pace toward unusual sonic destinations. “Aaron’s greatest gift as a collaborator is his ability to evolve and experiment with the emotional sound that is so natural to him,” Vernon says of the material.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElsewhere, the dream-like “Hoping Then” sets layered vocals by Vernon, Dessner and Hannigan (“It’s the on the edge of why I can’t sleep soundly”) atop chopped and phased violin lines, programmed drums and countermelodies played on a rubber bridge guitar. His brother Bryce’s orchestration ebbs and flows throughout this song and many others. The main instrumental track of the chugging, groovy “Easy to Sabotage” was stitched together from two different live recordings and later enveloped in warm keyboard textures and the head-nodding vocals of Naeem. “It just feels alive and electric, and it just happened,” Dessner says of the song.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat sense of shared experience extended to the new album’s title, which was coined by Swift after Dessner told her he wasn’t sure what to call the new album. Intuitively summing up the themes, she suggested titling it “How Long Do You Think It’s Gonna Last?,” a question which she pointed out could refer to multiple subjects addressed therein: “childhood, family, marriages, a depression, a losing streak, a winning streak or a creative streak. Taylor saw it all so clearly,” Dessner says. “A year ago, we’d never even worked together. It’s so cool that this community keeps extending and that everyone who contributed to this album connected so naturally to the emotions at the heart of the music.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jagjaguwar","offers":[{"title":"Limited Red Vinyl","offer_id":39746320138293,"sku":"JAG415lp-C1","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black Vinyl","offer_id":39746320171061,"sku":"JAG415lp","price":24.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":39746320203829,"sku":"JAG415cd","price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cassette Tape","offer_id":39746320236597,"sku":"JAG415cass","price":8.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/files\/Big-Red-Machine-How-Long-Do-You-Think-Its-Gonna-Last.jpg?v=1687538052"},{"product_id":"lucy-dacus-historian","title":"Lucy Dacus - Historian","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLucy Dacus is done thinking small.

It’s a low-slung, sensual ‘70s-style jam which simultaneously calls to mind Sly and The Family Stone, Philly soul, ‘Midnite Vultures’-era Beck and a little OutKast.

The album was recorded at Spacebomb Studios, though Julien's songs don’t share the down-home gloss of the other albums produced there. Instead of beefing up her honest tunes with rich layering like Natalie Prass or Matthew E. White, Baker pares her songs down to their simplest possible format: alone, singing and playing acoustic guitar directly into the microphone, sometimes in a single take. That decision resulted in a remarkable record, one full of beautiful, personal explorations revealed in stark intimacy. That choice makes a lot of sense for Baker’s voice, both in the literal and figurative sense. Rather than Prass’ sweet, soaring tones or White’s blue-eyed soul, Sprained Ankle is delivered in reedy whispers and chilled coos. Released just before she turned 20 years old, the record still sounds raw - not that her voice lacks control or power, but rather that the weariness of songs about death, breakups, and existential questioning are sung with incredible presence. They’re coming of age songs from someone still coming of age, the wounds still fresh, the big truths currently being revealed. There are the struggles of depression, drugs, loneliness, but the clear-eyed way she faces it all supersedes any platitude.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Matador","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42175456903221,"sku":"OLE 1119-8","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/products\/Julien-Baker-Sprained-Ankle.webp?v=1680363232"},{"product_id":"king-krule-space-heavy","title":"King Krule - Space Heavy","description":"\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e 09\/06\/23 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eArchy Marshall announces Space Heavy, the fourth studio album under his King Krule alias, out on Friday 9th June 2023 via XL Recordings.

Befitting an album quite literally written on the commute between the two places he called home, Archy found himself fascinated by the notion of “the space between” - the space haunted by dreams of love, touching a narrative of lost connection, losing people and situations to the guillotine of the universe. Once written by Archy, the music was developed by frequent collaborator and producer Dilip Harris and long-time band mates Ignacio Salvadores (Saxophonist), George Bass (Drummer), James Wilson (Bass Guitarist) and Jack Towell (Guitarist). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe result is a 15-track full-length by the musical polymath that inhabits the deepest reaches of the subterranean sonic world that Archy has constructed over the course of his career as King Krule. In it you hear a generational artist stepping into the height of their artistic powers – the auteurism apparent on his debut 6 Feet Beneath The Moon, the shapeshifting sonic palette of The OOZ, the primality of Man Alive! and the raw vulnerability expressed on You Heat Me Up, You Cool Me Down all coalesce into a wizened, dynamic body of work that reveals new elements with each listen. In line with Archy’s interest in the space between, it is an album wherein the negative space demands the same attention as the positive space. If one is willing to wade into the mire the reward is rich.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlimsier   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePink Shell  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeaforth   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThat Is My Life, That Is Yours  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTortoise Of Independency   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmpty Stomach Space Cadet   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlimsy   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHamburgerphobia   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom The Swamp   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeagirl  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOur Vacuum   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpace Heavy \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen Vanishing   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf Only It Was Warmth   \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWednesday Overcast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42201837010997,"sku":"XL1327LP","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/2825\/4773\/products\/King-Krule-Space-Heavy.jpg?v=1681486490"},{"product_id":"hozier-unreal-unearth","title":"Hozier - Unreal Unearth","description":"\u003cp\u003e18\/08\/23\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eUnreal Unearth is the incredible third album by Hozier.
