Review by Dan:

Debut long player from New Zealand’s Goldenhorse kicks off with the bouncy opening, "Northern Lights", which immediately showcases the angelic, almost childlike vocals of Kirsten Morelle. "Spice Islands" possesses guitars with a mildly oriental twang, “Out Tonight” has a rhythm conjuring up images of a sun kissed Caribbean island archipelago, and I enjoyed the suggestive trumpets in the ska influenced “Baby’s Been Bad”. However, my pick would be the strumming foot tapper that is “Maybe Tomorrow”, with the moody, majestic title track pushed into a close second. Goldenhorse display a much deeper understanding of music with this absorbing offering - one of the best albums I have bought in the last 12 months.
