Album Review: Squid - Bright Green Field

Album Review: Squid - Bright Green Field

“If Town Centre was their ‘proof of concept’, then debut album Bright Green Field is the culmination of everything they’ve been building towards: a full-on Metropolitan packed with anxious and confused everyday people. The inhabitants of their Metropolis are reminiscent of those in Terry Gilliam’s Brazil; trapped in a system so large it can’t be defined, their dreams alternating between nightmares and escapist fantasies.”

Squid’s Bright Green Field comes with a hell of a lot of expectation for a debut album, but they certainly delivered. I go long and conceptual in my review for Beats Per Minute.
