Based in Manchester, Last Harbour are an expansive collective featuring an array of classical instrumentation as well as guitar, bass and drums. Their new album ‘Volo' is set for release in February 2010 and was co-produced by the band and Richard Formby (Wild Beasts, Herman Dune, Spacemen 3, Dakota Suite). From dusty laments to doom-filled rock, from starkly beautiful duets to drifting clouds of looped noise, there's always an intensity that strikes hard. It's a highly original record featuring the band's strongest songs and most creative arrangements of their career to date.
UNCUT : *** "With their gothic archness and deathly strings, Last Harbour's fourth LP 'Volo' is their most expansive to date."
MOJO : "'Volo' exhibits so much literary dexterity and multi-instrumental skill you feel almost duty-bound to surender."
PLAN B : "Swooning dustbowl baroque, blackly turbulent like 16 Horsepower or Lift To Experience."
METRO : "Classic outback brooding."
DROWNED IN SOUND : "Bewitching."
ARTROCKER : "The final frontier of funeral pop."
LONDON TOUR DATES : "A country-noir masterpiece."
TERRORIZER : "Occasionally witty, always elegant, Last Harbour is for the discerning ear."
