Field Music – Flat White Moon (2021)
Filed Under: art rock, indie-pop by exy — 4 Comments
April 23, 2021

Field MusicFor release number eight, the UK’s prolific Brewis brothers (David and Peter have five full lengths since 2015, all on the scrappy Memphis Industries label), 
craft another batch of twisty, wildly creative indie pop with few others assisting.
Call it the pandemic work ethic as Field Music created these songs, overdub by overdub, predominantly in the confines of their home with only a few scant instruments (cello, sax, flute) played by guests.
While there is an insular nature to the production, it’s in keeping with their jittery, idiosyncratic pop, often and appropriately compared with that of XTC, Sparks and older Todd Rundgren.
Add some 10CC and David Byrne-inflected vocals for a vibrant, unpredictable pastiche, enhanced by smart if atypical lyrics like Compliments get you everywhere 
but not here/Don’t look! Don’t touch! Leave the fire alone!, from “Not When You’re in Love.”

Liner notes say that “Orion from the Streets” is about “Cary Grant and an excess of wine to become a hallucinogenic treatise on memory and guilt,” but it’s unlikely anyone will 
derive that from the lyrics or even try to unpack what that description means.
No matter; the music is so consistently crisp, dreamy and audacious that you’ll be carried away by its near hypnotic quality as synths twinkle, a rhythm section keeps a heartbeat 
thump and instruments fade in and out of the mix layering the song with sweetness and complexity.

The progression of Field Music from a more stripped down but still quirky outfit on its 2005 debut to this meticulously fashioned, multifaceted and challenging set is obvious.
The brothers always approached pop with their own skewed sensibilities but by creating almost every sound on Flat White Moon, they have produced arguably their most thought-provoking 
and enjoyable collection. Each tune is precisely constructed, both melodically and instrumentally.
And even if the band’s antecedents of Sparks and XTC are never far from the surface, few current outfits approach this artsy but far from pretentious work with the cheekily 
inspired mindset of Field Music.

"We want to make people feel good about things that we feel terrible about" " says David Brewis, who has co-led the band Field Music with his brother Peter since 2004.
It's a statement which seems particularly fitting to their latest album, Flat White Moon released on 23 April via Memphis Industries.
 
Soradic sessions for the album began in late 2019 at the pair's studio in Sunderland, slotted between rehearsals and touring.
The initial recordings pushed a looser performance aspect to the fore, inspired by some of their very first musical loves; Free, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles; 
old tapes and LPs pilfered from their parents' shelves.
But a balance between performance and construction has always been an essential part of Field Music.
By March 2020, recording had already begun for most of the album's tracks and, with touring for Making A New World winding down, Peter and David were ready to plough on and finish the record.
The playfulness thatÆs evident in much of Flat White Moon's music became a way to offset the darkness and the sadness of many of the lyrics.
Much of the album is plainly about loss and grief, and also about the guilt and isolation which comes with that.
Those personal upheavals are apparent on songs like Out of the Frame, where the loss of a loved one is felt more deeply because they can't be found in photographs and 
compounded by the suspicion that you caused their absence, or on When You Last Heard From a Linda, which details the confusion of being unable to penetrate a best friend's loneliness in the darkest of circumstances.
Some songs are more impressionistic.
Orion From The Streets combines Studio Ghibli, a documentary about Cary Grant and an excess of wine to become a hallucinogenic treatise on memory and guilt.
Others, such as Not When You're In Love, are more descriptive.
Here, the narrator guides us through slide-projected scenes, questioning the ideas and semantics of 'love' as well the reliability of his own memory.
For the most part, the album has fewer explicitly political themes than previous records, though there is No Pressure, about a political class who feel no 
obligation to take responsibility if they can finagle a narrative instead.
And there's I'm The One Who Wants To Be With You which skirts its way around toxic masculinity through teenage renditions of soft-rock balladry.
On Flat White Moon Field Music take on the challenge of representing negative emotions in a way that doesn't dilute or obscure them but which can still uplift.
The result is a generous record of bounteous musical ideas, in many ways Field Music's most immediately gratifying to date.
