Editor's review
Having defined and refined dark, atmospheric alt-rock in the '80s and '90s, the Church members have settled into an elder-statesmen role that suits them well. Surprisingly, there's a more energized, straightforward feel to their majestic and brooding approach--they rock like it's all brand new.
Biography
As their 25th anniversary approaches art-rock band The Church, having recently returned from international touring, are continuing to push the boundaries of what a rock band should be. Rather than becoming a tame bloated parody of what they used to be, or plodding out insipid greatest hits, the band have spent the last five years making music as they desire, without regard for current trend, trusting in the traditional virtues of talent, chemistry and good taste to guide them, an approach that has served them well for over twenty years.
