DESCRIPTION

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Sophomore album for UK singer/songwriter. The follow up to his 1999 debut 'My Beautiful Demon' with more falsetto folk-electronica. Featuring Fault line's David Kosten again at the production helm, this is a beautifully realized record. Sounding like a cross between Jeff Buckley & early Pink Floyd. Ten tracks including, 'Leaving My Sorrow Behind' & 'Transatlantic Shooting Stars'. Uncut gave it 4 stars saying, '.stunningly combining pin-drop stillness with spooked, unusual arrangements worthy of Mark Hollis (Talk Talk) & a croon cramped in the void between Jeff Buckley & Art Garfunkel. Gorgeous'. 2001.

Wolverhampton-bred Ben Christophers follows up his 1999 debut My Beautiful Demon with more falsetto folk-electronica on Spoonface. With Faultline's David Kosten again at the production helm, this is a beautifully realised record. Sounding like a cross between Jeff Buckley and early Pink Floyd, Christophers' ethereal voice is anchored by crunchy beats, contemplative piano and slow-building, cyclical grooves. He creates tantalising word-sketches--such as "When you drove your car into the stream", or "You got shipwrecker's eyes" - and leaves them hovering like lyrical vapour trails. He doesn't just do delicate; check out the opening song "Leaving My Sorrow Behind", which is fine swamp bluesy pop, or "Transatlantic Shooting Stars", with its summery psychedelic chorus. --Lucy O'Brien
