-
Reissued
for
the
first
time
since
its
original
release
in
2012
and
long
since
out
of
print,
Plumb
is
one
of
Field
Music’s
best
works,
an
album
that
firmly
cemented
them
as
one
of
the
UK’s
most
creative
and
critically
acclaimed
bands.
It
was
nominated
for
a
Mercury
Music
Prize
and
received
huge
praise
from
the
likes
of
MOJO,
Q,
UNCUT,
The
Guardian
and
more.
Plumb’s
10
year
anniversary
edition
is
limited
to
2,000
copies
world
wide
and
comes
on
clear,
plum
coloured
vinyl
for
Record
Store
Day
2022.
Plumb
digs
into
the
age-old
dichotomy
between
what
is
reflective
or
nostalgic
and
the
disorienting
immediacy
of
the
outside
world.
Songs

as

recall
those
early-morning/late-night
moments
where
dreaming,
memory
and
the
present
appear
fused
together.

and
especially
Choosing
Sides,
mine
a
caustic
seam
of
ambivalence
towards
whatever
passes
for
aspiration
and
sincerity
in
to
hyper-mediated
and
mock-hysterical
times.
Whether
the
angle
is
personal
or
political,
throughout
the
record
there
are
allusions
to
the
expectations
and
obligations
we
all
amass.
Can
we
live
up
to
the
expectations
we
had
for
ourselves
when
we
had
youth
and
naivety
on
our
side?
Can
we
be
the
people
we'd
like
to
be
for
the
sake
of
our
loved
ones?
When
we
feel
so
powerless,
what's
worth
fighting
for
and
what's
worth
fighting
against?
