Natural History by I Am Kloot – Album Review
by Matt Callard
Downtrodden northern-tinged folk rock from another Billy Liar-type dreaming of a great escape while railing at the weather, the Man and life in general.
Elbow’s Guy Garvey produced and there are links in the Mancunian delivery if not in musical ambition.
“Heart-tugging in its simplicity”
Whatever, this is still a fine debut. Heart-tugging in its frank simplicity and swaying with its own rainy vision and occasional romantic flourish.
2010’s Sky At Night, however, is a mini masterpiece.
7/10
