The best thing to come out of Nottingham since Brian Clough’s all conquering football side of the ‘70s, are back with a long-player that similarly looks set to dominate. Once more successfully fusing raw funk influences with pop-melodies, chilled beats and soul instrumentation, Neon Heights’ create music for grownups appealing on so many levels. The Beatles-esque ‘Listen To The More’ or the folk-like and instinctively groovy vibe ‘Breakfast Table’ ooze heartfelt passion. With the tempo’s at best never more then a toe-tapping tempo, the upcoming single, ‘That’s Entertainment’ is a wonderfully downbeat take on the Jam’s mod standard and only adds to make this an album you’ll instantly reach for after a night out to readjust your equilibrium and make sense of it all.
