4AD shines a light on the Leeds dream pop band's second album, remastered and augmented by the bonus 7" from the original vinyl pressing and nine demos.
Genesis proved that they could rock on Foxtrot but on its follow-up Selling England by the Pound, released 50 years ago today, they didn't follow this route, they returned to the English eccentricity of their first records, which wasn't so much a retreat as a consolidation of powers.
The sophomore full-length effort from the American indie rock trio featuring Shearwater's Jonathan Meiburg and Cross Record's Emily Cross and Dan Duszynski, Don't Shy Away sees Loma deliver an impressive and impressionistic set of songs that combine elemental dream pop and dark folktronica.
