London Grammar?

I think Hannah Reid has one of the most beautiful and unique voices in music. Overall, fantastic music IMHO. They actually have 4 albums out now, House, recently released, is the fourth album.

Thanks for the thoughts guys.

I'm still sorting out what I think about this band. For the record I don't mind 'mood' type music. I don't even mind some techno and electronic music. I don't go as far as 'ambient' type music though.

I like bands like Khruangbin a lot, although in that band there is no doubt about the presence of 'musicianship' even when there isn't a whole lot of thematic variation.

As far as London Grammar I do not perceive a lack of musicianship despite the electronic nature of it. But agree there isn't a lot of variation in the style.

Some of the compositions are quite good. Some of the songs are engaging.

Sound quality is good/okay on my system. A couple of songs sound great. 

Hannah Reid's voice is a bit of a mixed bag for me. Some of the higher register pieces sound a little weak or ragged and undisciplined even though I assume those are her signature hooks. It is almost like she is trying too hard. When she keeps it at a less extreme register I find her voice to be quite beautiful and engaging.

And I'm not suggesting all voices have to be precise and operatic. Ragged and edgy sounds great if you're Janis Joplin but not in techno symphonic stuff like this.

Anyway, I'm intrigued enough to keep listening which is more than I can say for a lot of stuff that is 10 years old or less.

quite good, if smoother and less visceral than my usual--the songs tend to sound samey, but they have some soul and i like the minimalism of the arrangements. whether or not you like this will depend 100% on whether you connect with her voice, which is big and dramatic.

Atmospheric, electronic pop music. I like the song Hey Now.

Incredible band, music. Hannah’s voice is hard to explain, but just wow. She’s an absolute favorite and hooks me in every time.

Now this is pop music (so lets keep in in context) and not a large percentage of what I listen to on a reg basis, but, every time I start a LG tune, hard not to listen to the entire album - which is how I listen usually anyway (not a playlist, single song type of listener). Sometimes I just like this style of music

Very engaging music from the get go, goosebumps MANY times. Very different vocal arrangements, inflections, music isn’t of standard recipe/fake crap like most everything put out nowadays. Is unique and surprising musical hooks. Great SQ to boot.

They don’t have a bad album and the new teaser out (House) already has has hooked.
