Description/Reviews:
The end of “Goldolphin” is nicely rounded, as quiet piano work takes us back to the spring day. By contrast “Orchid” starts as if we’re in a sound laboratory or an experimental music studio. From the grounded “Godolphin”, there’s a lofty air with hints of magic, melancholy and the East. A distinctively post-rock guitar line combines with the drum beat to bring calm and order back into our lives. At this point I could see where the comparisons with Yes and King Crimson might have come from. Let me add Mike Oldfield to that list. clayhands guide us through a world of dreams, a pleasant one I must say. “Orchid” is a super warm track, giving justification to the band’s self-description as a “human band”.Read the full review by Andrew Doherty at avenoctum.com
