Playlist: Remembrance of Times Past
Field Music – Six Weeks, Nine Wells During the summer I spent an afternoon with my daughter exploring the Sunderland streets where I grew at. By the end, having played in my old park, peered through the fence at my first school and noted the disappearance of my old nursery, we were ready for ice cream. So we popped to the corner shop, just like I did when I got my pocket money, bought some choc ices and sat on the bench outside to eat them. It felt like 40 years rolled away.

But while the ‘day job’ involves some hard-hitting shredding, this is a different beast. The scope is cinematic at times; bits of The Well could soundtrack a twisted take on some kind of medieval epic, while another preview track, Bloodlust, uses strings and chorus to set up a post-psychedelic sound world that takes the Summer of Love and gives it a kick up the backside.
