alt-J
While any quartet from the UK is bound to evoke thoughts of
lofty predecessors, alt-J’s sound defies all comparison. Their
sophomore effort ‘This is All Yours’ goes from quoting Alfred de
Musset to sampling Miley Cyrus. Our favourite line? “I’m gonna
bed into you like a cat beds into a beanbag.” That’s poetry. alt-J is
modern but at the same time timeless, playful but expressive, chill
but unexpected—definitely a performance not to miss! HJC
