"Sun Leads Me On is a worthy case study in technical delivery, but for discerning music fans you can do better."

Half Moon Run, the Canadian band who first arrived with their 2012 debut record and catchy single Call Me In The Afternoon, return with a record that's similar to its predecessor, in that it's solid yet unspectacular.

The band's strengths lie in their song arrangements and excellent use of dynamics, but for a group showing so much potential there aren't the inspirational moments that, say, Fleet Foxes or The Mountain Goats achieve on a regular basis. For music students Sun Leads Me On is a worthy case study in technical delivery, but for discerning music fans, you can do better.
