A song that creeps up on us, the kind that didn’t evoke the frighteners because Nicole Saphos Band are too nuanced for that. ‘Consumed’ develops in a near spoken word manner, a sort of jig and a bit of they’re making this up as they go along. In this act’s hands however there was always going to magic, like a Disney tune but done by an indie band who don’t follow any of the usual rules. A train of thought set to music in other words and for several minutes it felt as if wonder had returned to our door. KH
