The kind of band that used to be on 4AD. So I was pleased to find that Daughter are on 4AD. They have that hallowed religious sound the likes of Dead Can Dance built their reputations on.
Latest album Stereo Mind Game is full of space, awe and silence. It might be good at a dinner party if that's your thing. If not, late night with a set of good headphones might be a route to follow.
This kind of chilled, solemn approach has never completely my cup of sick. The Cocteau Twins largely left me cold. I prefer a bit more blood and guts.
That's definitely not the currency that Daughter trade in. What they do, they do very well. If what I've described is your thrill, check them out.
