An astonishingly accomplished record for the 23 year old whose vocal duties for bombay bicycle club have gained her notoriety & a dedicated following already.
Opening with the powerful, urgent drumming of ‘Red Face’ before segueing into the first single she ever released, ‘Middle Of The Bed’, ‘Like I Used To’ is one of those rare debut albums where every song deserves to be there. The unconventionally structured, tempo-hopping ‘Lines’, with its complex time signatures & roaring choruses; the slide guitars & Sufjan-esque harmonies of ‘Shiver’; the brooding, atmospheric ‘Place’ – the entire album is testament to Lucy’s desire to produce as organic a record as possible.
