Cranes - Cranes

Limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on translucent silver coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Cranes is a dream pop/shoegaze band formed by siblings Alison and Jim Shaw who rose to stardom following a world tour with the Cure in 1992. After the influential Dedicated label folded in 1998 they went on a two-year hiatus after which they set up their own label Dadaphonic. Here, they released three studio albums between 2001 and 2008, of which this self-titled record is their last. Like their other Dadaphonic records, Cranes is a continuation of the band's subtler side powered by their penchant for electronic music. Shimmery synth arps and ambient strings are interspersed with the trusted drum kit and guitars, while keeping Alison Shaw's child-like vocals so integral to the band's overall sound intact. The result is a vintage Cranes album that has the ability to both soothe long-time fans as well as reel in new ones.
