I reviewed the latest album from The Lodger, Flashbacks, for Dusted:
Siddall’s voice is in the same melancholy vein as Field Mice/Trembling Blue Stars mainstay Robert Wratten, and the Lodger’s music suggests that that influence goes beyond the vocal approach. The Lodger takes a restrained, austere approach to uptempo, jangling rock – though here, the presence of trumpet and saxophone tilts the dynamic away from what might be expected from that particular strain of indiepop.
