Strange Pleasures is the second album by London's Still Corners. Where its predecessor, 2010's Creatures of an Hour, also on Sub Pop, soared on sugared layers of shoegazing-infused retro-futurism, Strange Pleasures proffers a leaner, more acute extrapolation of '80s-suffused song and studio craft, navigating a sinuous trajectory between velveteen noir-pop and the glacial, mellifluous territory mapped by Modern English, The Cure and The Passions. Presaged by the soaring "Fireflies" single (Pitchfork's Best New Track of 9/28/2012), Strange Pleasures brings the Still Corners story up to date.
