Happy In The Hollow (CD)
Barcode: 5055869506120
Their fourth album, and their first for new label Tough Lough Records, its unquestionably their most direct and propulsive album to date. Recorded between their own home tape studios and mixed at Dan Careys Studio B in South London, the album was entirely produced and mixed by the band. Talking about Sequence One, Toy say: its about running through a war zone of post apocalyptic proportions with your significant other. It was one of the first tracks we wrote when we started making Happy In The Hollow. Happy In The Hollow is entirely uncompromising: an atmospheric capturing of a state of mind that touches on Post Punk, electronic dissonance, acid folk and Krautrock. Familiar qualities like metronomic rhythms, warping guitars, undulating synths and Toms gentle, reedy vocals are all in there, but so is a greater emphasis on melody, a wider scope, and a combining of the reassuring and the sinister that is as unnerving as it is captivating.'
