May 19 street date. The comfortably claustrophobic opening track of Jane Weaver’s sixth studio album reveals a genuine experimental-pop artist in absolute control of her own intimate vessel, a songwriter and composer whose craft communicates and illustrates, vibrant within her first articulate strokes. In its sweetness, this is an ability that transcends style, politics and egotism and one that only comes with life-experience and the ability to learn, grow and fantasise in private and public alike. For those that have followed her detailed career, Jane Weaver is progressive rock in its purest molecular form. Fossilised in ferric, the crystal in the concrete. Magnetic, melodic, folkloric, unapologetic and rhythmic in her discipline. Modern Kosmology is the result of a scientist of popular song gone rogue. Here we find a model student of second-hand Kraut-rock, female punk, hard-subbed new-wave, synthesiser skip-finds and unpronounceable worldly feminine pop who’s finally reached her eureka moment. From science to séance, Modern Kosmology sees Jane Weaver’s melodic-protagonist channeling new depths of creative cosmic energy within. After the huge critical acclaim of 2012’s Fallen By Watchbird, followed by 2015’s exploratory “Silver Globe” LP winning her unanimous “record of the year accolades” and hefty measures of radio play-listing Jane Weaver’s conceptual trajectory has sent her neo-kosmische penchants to the point of no-return. Flown too far from the nest into a wider vista where brave melodic feminine songwriting meets robust synthesis, brutalist composition and Letterist informed song-structure… this album, for many, might be the post-grad psychedelic pop album they never thought would happen.
April 20 street date. RECORD STORE DAY release. Two unreleased studio cuttings from the sessions that spawned Jane Weaver's symphonic space pop opus ‘Love In Constant Spectacle’, produced by John Parish. Featuring ‘Quantify’, a Krautrock-powered vision driven at high speed through a synthetic backdrop littered with analogue synths and pulsing guitars. Cut with the raga-styled nuances of ‘Deep Perelle’, an other-worldly piece of ambience, tugged through with tabla drums and a fuzzy guitar pattern. An essential part of the ongoing unfolding mystery of Jane Weaver. Limited to 1000 copies.
April 12 street date. Recalibrating Jane Weaver's singular journey in the British musical landscape with her most open-hearted, direct and intimate collection of material yet, "Love In Constant Spectacle" evokes spectacular imagery and distills the artist's vision in its purest form, elevating her inimitable sound and poetic vision to new heights. Recapturing the melancholy of her early work whilst propelling it forward, she sketches scenes as we watch new colours, shapes and languages emerge and fill the frame. "Love In Constant Spectacle" sees Weaver take measured steps towards a vivid, dreamlike record, that offers resolve in the face of life's inevitability. The foundations of her sound are still evident - lush motorik drums, pulsating bass, custom modded synths and exotic fuzz pedals - but the stream is awash with scrabble piece poetry and Letraset lullabies leading to lush escapism, the free abandon that you'd associate with free jazz and the avant-garde. avant-garde. But, as determined and visionary as Weaver might be, the album wasn't executed without assistance. Here we find a long mooted unison with Jane's first ever producer, John Parish (PJ Harvey, Aldous Harding).
