Retour à Liverpool #[nn]

A rain-slicked Liverpool night sets the mood on this atmospheric Futuropolis album, as a classic British taxi — plates reading LMW 781F — carries a group of passengers through darkened, cobblestone streets while a lone shadowy figure watches from the pavement. Hervé Bourhis and Julien Solé craft a cover that feels equal parts noir thriller and nostalgic homage, with the moody palette of deep blues and blacks punctuated by bold red lettering doing all the right things. At 17,00 EUR, this 2021 release looks like a compelling dive into the streets and stories of the legendary port city.
