2014 saw the release of Esben and the Witch’s third full-length album A New Nature. Committed live to tape by Steve Albini, those familiar with the producers work might connect the dots between the uncompromising fare of the record and his recordings for PJ Harvey and Neurosis – yes, A New Nature does get that heavy.

But don’t be fooled into thinking A New Nature is an exercise in imitation — far from it, as this is the sound of a band sincerely realising that its strengths needed time to mature, and they have done so in a fashion startling to anyone who might still think of them as purveyors of material exclusively in the manner of their breakthrough single, 2010’s ‘Marching Song’.

Evolution, expansion, call it what you will: this is Esben and the Witch unconcerned with tags and terms, instead committed only to producing the most enveloping, electrifying and fulfilling music they can.
