Fiel Garvie
I Didn't Say
Foundling Records

After a fine debut album Fiel Garvie seemed to vanish. Luckily they are back with a new single and an upcoming album called Leave Me out of This. The two songs on the single are simply amazing. Anne Reekie's voice is a sultry purr not unlike Isabel Monteiro of Drugstore. "I Didn't Say" is a triumphant slice of pop. It has a melancholy feel but still lifts the spirit. "Buzzfisch" is haunting and has slightly scary lyrics. The guitar makes a buzzing sound while Reekie sings like a midnight siren.

Fiel Garvie are finally back and this single raises my expectations for the album.
