Taking a look at the rest of our top fifty, Craven Faults are joined in the post-kosmische electronics gang by Dalham, Rival Consoles and (sort of) epic45. But you don't need to be a Loiner to enjoy this album - ‘Erratics And Unconformities' is the sort of LP which will provide transportive listening experiences for years to come, and that's a big part of why we've seen fit to crown it our Best Album of 2020. As my colleague Daoud outlined so elegantly in his musings on the plague year, the sweeping, moody kosmische sounds of this record enmesh perfectly with the post-industrial landscape around our office in south Leeds. We've also got a bit of a spiritual connection to ‘Erratics And Unconformities'. Rarely does an album seem to suspend time itself when it's playing, but that's exactly what ‘Erratics And Unconformities' does. This is widescreen, sweeping music, an album of kosmische techno epics in which synths interlock and disperse like turning cogs. Not really - it's Erratics And Unconformities by Craven Faults.Īnd really, what else could it be? Have you heard this thing?! It rules. 'And the winner is.the gig that Jon Bon Jovi streamed from his mansion to promote his new line of rosé wine!'.

A smile begins to form at the corner of his mouth.
