Australian trio Methyl Ethel are the latest addition to the 4AD roster.
Singer songwriter Jake Webb's voice glides through the album with a
haunting fragility and powerful vocal range, that at times sounds
delicately effeminate. His voice changes so vastly that is sounds like
the album features two lead vocalists, transitioning from sweet and
painful crooning, to a more masculine, rock-pop tone similar to that of
Arcade Fire.
