Four years have passed since The Wants, the highly regarded last effort by the longstanding Glaswegian experimentalists, but on the evidence of "Strange Friend", Phantom Band have used this turbulent period to hone an album that cements their standing as a uniquely invigorating proposition. Seamlessly melding krautrock, synthpop, electronic and folk elements into their giddily melodic and chemically fried ditties, yet always maintaining an uplifting tenor and a blissful coherence amidst the abundance of influence, The Wants are the spiritual inheritors of the all-encompassing psych-pop glory once the preserve of the like of The Flaming Lips and Super Furry Animals.
