This week’s album of the week was ESBEN AND THE WITCH – VIOLET CRIES.

 
Debut album from this young band from Brighton. You don’t get much goth these days but I know my goth (without, thankfully, looking like one) and this is the stuff. The album came out on 31 January.

Also had another play of the session from THE LOVELY EGGS which we recorded here at Phoenix FM last Sunday.
