Read: The Quietus interviews Still House Plants

Curated by Bo Ningen News snacks

Enmeshing R&B, slowcore and pop influences, Still House Plants’s latest album If I don't make it, I love u is the band’s fullest embodiment of the UK trio’s sound to date.

Critically acclaimed, the record marks the post-rock outfit's decade of friendship and consolidates their research for a richer, deeper sound. In an interview with The Quietus, Still House Plants talked about rethinking the limits of guitar, voice and drums and taking a “major step forwards” on their third album. Read the full interview with Patrick Clarke and tune in to the album below.

On their third album, Still House Plants embrace, not shun, sounds absorbed from childhood in working-class environments. Here, the trio integrate skeletal post-rock with soul and jazz, deconstructed by a presiding impulse to blur lines between terms or genres, allowing it all to collapse and collide. It’s harmony clashing with disharmony, the musicality of concrete sound. – The Quietus
