'Slow Wave' is the beautiful, widescreen cinematic pop record by England's unsung heroes, the cosmic lo-fi quartet It Hugs Back. Led by the intricate songwriting and guitar of Matthew Simms (also guitarist in longstanding influential art-rock band Wire since 2010), steering clear of standard structures and tunings by tackling his love for an ever-increasing range of music head on, working with Jack Theedom (keyboards &amp; vocals), Paul Michael (bass) and Will Blackaby (drums), together they have created their own dream world of sound that is both new and wonderful. During a lengthy period of recording in their own Kent countryside studio throughout the summer of 2014, the full band initially recorded live to form the strong, repetitive, rhythmic patterns that are the foundation to the record. "Otherworldly Home-studio lo-fi psych that resembles Tame Impala with their foot down hard on the pop-hook pedal" - NME
