LUMP is the hypnotising, surrealist and curious collaboration from indie-folk queen Laura Marling and award-winning producer (and Tunng member) Mike Lindsay. Recorded in Lindsay’s London studio, Marling and Lindsay’s meeting of minds produced the cerebral LUMP, seven long, idiosyncratic, frequently ambient tracks. On the self-titled album LUMP, the reminiscence of Marling’s voice from previous records, is noticeable through her serene contrasting lines of almost spoken lyrics comparing to long vibratos that accompany a visual, experimental landscape surrounding.
