In 2013 MONEY released their acclaimed debut album The Shadow Of Heaven & now two years on their new album Suicide Songs takes you deeper into their sound & vision It feels more advanced & yet simpler more perfected & yet more open It is by turns a tender barren cavernous smouldering despairing & inspirational piece of work It’s a long day’s journey into night but it pays huge dividends when you arrive drawing you in & casting a spell that won’t let go The album finds the band gelling as never before framing Jamie’s poetic vision with an intuitive grasp of the album’s dignified & despairing themes There are strings & brass gospel-style backing vocals & the (Indian stringed) dilruba on the opening ‘I Am The Lord’ This collectively adds more divine
