Renowned live powerhouse Harmony play to their strengths on Diminishing Returns, frontman Tom Lyngcoln imbuing his voice with a haunting monotonous inflection like that of a chanting high priest. The inevitable payoff isn’t quite like the apocalyptic explosions that defined their debut album, giving the gnarled guitar solo room to breathe. The angelic harmonies ease in at just the right moments, the guitar and drums colluding in hypnotic tandem. As a seven-inch release, it’s a more than satisfying offering that hopefully precedes an imminent second LP.
