In a career that's been getting more and more pastoral as time moves on, the long-running (since 1982!), sporadically-recorded, highly influential Pastels have made their most pastoral sounding record yet with 2009's TWO SUNSETS. Teamed with like-minded innocents from Japan the Tenniscoats, the combined group (aided by Teenage Fanclub's Gerard Love and various friends like Bill Wells and Norman Blake) ramble through twelve songs like a group of friends sitting around in the late afternoon sunshine having the relaxed and peaceful time of the summer. Some of the tunes are fully formed pop numbers, like the truly lovely and warm Vivid Youth or their cover of the Jesus and Mary Chain's About You, some are short, almost soundtrack-y musical fragments with melodies that drift aimlessly and beautifully like leaves in the breeze. The mixing of the two styles makes for a varied album that flows from start to finish like a quiet brook through a wooded glen.
