Art-rock isn't a sure thing anymore, especially when it gets this listenable. On their number two release, British quartet These New Puritans veer between a darker Massive Attack, sing-songy Bjork balladry, and Brian Eno's mid-'80s organic-sounding tape loops, all of which we never dreamed could accomodate an afternoon stroll. Hidden packs together choirs, horn sections and solid "are-they-or-aren't-they-in-house" beats, for a front-to-back hearty album experience that mood enthusiasts would do best to not overlook.
