London Grammar have been taking their time. Propelled to the top of the charts by If You Wait, their 2013 début album (a Qobuzissime record!), Hannah Reid, Dot Major and Dan Rothman have put meticulous planning and composition into Truth Is A Beautiful Thing. The young London trio, who built their previous works around their singer's enchanting voice (which recalls that of Romy Madley Croft of The XX, but also Florence & the Machine, or, further back, Tracey Thorne of Everything But the Girl), have followed a similar strategy here. And perhaps they have even perfected it, as Rooting For You, the song that opens the record, makes for such an ideal backdrop for the dreamy, divine voice. This weightless singing once again finds itself deployed in the service of an atmospheric, quasi-religious pop, which borders on a kind of new-age electro on some tracks. In four years, Hannah Read has built up her already-exceptional vocal talent. Above all, she never abuses the virtuoso skill that she deploys in her songs. Impressive. © CM/Qobuz

Album review
London Grammar have been taking their time. Propelled to the top of the charts by If You Wait, their 2013 début album (a Qobuzissime record!), Hannah Reid, Dot Major and Dan Rothman have put meticulous planning and composition into Truth Is A Beautiful Thing. The young London trio, who built their previous works around their singer's enchanting voice (which recalls that of Romy Madley Croft of The XX, but also Florence & the Machine, or, further back, Tracey Thorne of Everything But the Girl), have followed a similar strategy here. And perhaps they have even perfected it, as Rooting For You, the song that opens the record, makes for such an ideal backdrop for the dreamy, divine voice. This weightless singing once again finds itself deployed in the service of an atmospheric, quasi-religious pop, which borders on a kind of new-age electro on some tracks. In four years, Hannah Read has built up her already-exceptional vocal talent. Above all, she never abuses the virtuoso skill that she deploys in her songs. Impressive. © CM/Qobuz
