Burials

As the name might suggest, Burials, the debut album from Dublin trio The Ambience Affair, is brimming with conflict. Jamie Clarke’s vocals sound delightfully feral throughout, particularly on ‘War Weary’, a two-fisted battle song with plenty of underlying groove, and ‘(---)’, a raging piano ditty. Packed with rolling rhythms and murky riffs, Burials is a beautiful blitzkrieg; thoughtful, accomplished and powerful.
