TOPS / I Feel Alive LP Peppermint Vinyl

TOPS 'I Feel Alive' LP Peppermint Vinyl

The artwork for Tops' fourth LP sets the tone for the music enclosed. Inspired by the work of photographer Thomas Ruff, Tops' vocalist Jane Penney stares bare-faced down the lens - simple and un-posed, yet striking with starkness and vulnerability. The image captures the fraught nature of being alive, which the 11 tracks on the album explore.

Penny's remarkably expressive voice is front and center. On this record more than any other, she sings with passion and energy, without sacrificing the honesty and introspection that gives her voice its depth. 'I Feel Alive' is Tops' fourth full-length, following 2017's 'Sugar At The Gate' and follows singles "Echo of Dawn" and "Seven Minutes" from last year.

Their trademark sound of beguiling melodies over soft-rock grooves, with touches of '80s sophisti-pop and a contemporary experimental palette is intact, but bolder and more expansive.
