Album Review: Django Django - Born Under Saturn

"There’s always more to be discovered in the layers beneath the surface and that’s what makes Django Django such a brilliant indie-rock sidestep."

More Django Django More Django Django

The London four-piece expand on their percussive, idiosyncratic sound with second album, Born Under Saturn, because really, why fix what ain’t broke?

Single, First Light is the album’s most easily digestible electric groove flagbearer – though those near deadpan harmonies remain at the forefront – but things get more captivating further in. Shake & Tremble, Pause Repeat, High Moon and more standouts ensure this album is sometimes pretty, sometimes jarring, but relentlessly interesting. There’s always more to be discovered in the layers beneath the surface and that’s what makes Django Django such a brilliant indie-rock sidestep.
