leeds outfit, van houten, indulge us in a debut that sits comfortably between shoegaze and classic indie, whilst gently teasing us with a subtle pinch of psych. Having risen under the radar of tastemakers such as so young records & 6 music, van houten have kept us on tenterhooks to unveil their debut & it does not disappoint.

A record that proves an established sound that isn’t defined by shoegaze guitar tones, as it slips in pop sensibilities with choruses bright enough to guide ships to the shore.

‘the tallest room’ krauts just as much as it hooks and delicately whispers just as much as it drives.
