donovan quinn & the 13th month Your Wicked Man (LP, £15.75)

ENIGMATIC, DEADPAN LYRICS WRITTEN IN A DENSE AND FRAGMENTARY STYLE. THE SECOND ALBUM WITH HIS PRIMARY BAND BRINGS QUINN'S EMBRACE OF RUSTIC, POETIC POPCRAFT TO THE FORE. A DISTINCT TAKE ON ART-POP FORMS RE-IMAGINES EARLY EFFORTS FROM MEKONS AND JOHN CALE AS FILTERED THROUGH CALI FOLK ROCK.
