Sheffield alum ConChie returns from illness with his first release since 2020’s critically-acclaimed Northumbria debut. Recorded on analogue 4-track but sounding anything but lo-fi, this is an album, as footie pundits might say, of two halves. Side one’s six tracks trace the immediate experiences of loss, separation and love in emotionally-direct, richly melodic colours while side two’s Home For Me is equal parts meditational fever dream and end-of-night comedown deep dive into acceptance and realisation. Standout tracks Capture the Flags, Signs and Symbols and Home For Me – but really, all killer, no filler.
