UK stock with immediate same day dispatch if ordered before 3pm Empty Avenues (2013) Ghost Box John Foxx And The Belbury Circle John Foxx and The Belbury Circle – Empty Avenues Occupying the overlapping fictional worlds of The Quiet Man and Ghost Box, Foxx’s unmistakable voice is elegantly framed by the haunting pastoral electronics of The Belbury Circle Like all Ghost Box records, it comes in Julian House’s elegant and luxurious packaging, with variant covers for the CD digipak and 10” vinyl versions. PLEASE NOTE: The free download code offer for this product has now expired. Reviews Foxx’s latest collaboration is such an uncanny fit that, in a way, it feels strange it hasn’t happened sooner. Dreamy and romantic, English but profoundly other, songs like ‘Empty Avenues’ and ‘Time Of Your Life’ are both inviting and intriguing, finding a shared space between two well-defined aesthetic universes. FACT …neon sombre, rainy day replicas of Junior Boys’ transatlantic glide, experienced through the world weary conscience of David Sylvian. Arguably the label’s finest effort.
