40 Thieves - The Sky Is Yours 1 (Gatefold 2LP) - Leng

Previously spotted on the likes of Rong and Permanent Vacation, San Frandisco troupe 40 Thieves celebrate a decade of sonic conjurations with their massive debut album The Sky Is Yours. Bounding across the groove galaxy with such extensive momentum, it takes up two entire albums. Part one is a full sensory overload: Get hypnotised by chugging analogue weaves on "Face Full Of Fur", get massaged by the soft funk guitar strums and graceful piano licks of "In Your Space", go crazy to the punk-funk struts and slurs of "Les Planetes", take one giant leap for dancefloor kind on the peculiar angularities of "Zott Enough"... However you choose to digest this stunning opus, just make sure you leave space for the second helping.
