Album Review: Hollow Coves - Wanderlust

Brisbane indie-folksters Hollow Coves have chiselled away at their craft for the past couple of years, which has helped shape their pleasant sound into one that offers a bit more grit than the usual fare in the scene.

Latest EP Wanderlust is a perfect example; while there's the usual sparse guitar noodles and percussive galloping beat in opener Coastline and wistful strummer Home, there's some really pretty lines in the offbeat We Will Run, some interesting, raspy textures and striking piano in The Woods, and an acoustic interlude that shows off this young duo's knack for the aesthetic.
