Engaging guitar squalls with cosmic alt-country delights
IAN SINCLAIR reviews albums by Gulp, Cowboy Junkies, and Israel Nash

Gulp
All Good Wishes
(E.L.K Records)
★★★

COMPRISING Lindsey Leven on vocals, Super Furry Animals’ Guto Pryce and guitarist Gid Goundrey, Gulp trade in dreamy psych-pop.

With the tracks written in south Wales and mixed by electronic producer Luke Abbott in Norwich, the trio’s second record conjures up lots of interesting sounds and ideas. But, first and foremost, these are pop songs.

Cowboy Junkies
All That Reckoning
(Proper Records)

★★★

Israel Nash
Lifted
(Loose Music)

★★★★
