Album Review
Chills, The – “scatterbrain” – [Fire Records]
Mister S 10/12/2022 12-inch, A Library
Another fine record from New Zealand’s singer/songwriter Martin Phillips with former titles Brave Worlds, Submarine Bells and the collection Heavenly Pop hits to name a few.
A quirky mix of jangly pop-folk sounds flavored with melancholia that continue to feed my obsession with music from New Zealand.
I originally discovered The Chills/Martin Phillips in my obsessive collection of bands from the Flying Nun label, now on Fire Records.
This is the third line-up of The Chills first formed in 1980 which Martin Phillips has continuously been the chief protagonist.
Released 2021
