As with previous Twilight Sad recordings there is a feel of lyricism and poetry about James Graham's writing that lifts the Twilight Sad to another level from most of their peers, while his Scottish brogue is instantly recognisable. As if that wasn't enough No One Can Ever Know is musically a world away from their previous efforts, subtle and sophisticated with electronic sounscapes, effects, more Joy Division than previous influences such as Mogwai. Having said that this is not the most uplifting recording you will have heard this year, (just a glance through the song titles will tell you that: sick, dead city, nil, kill it in the morning etc) but it's one to sit down with, and give a few listens to as the hidden subtleties in the music reveal themselves. Well worth trying.
