When we last saw Broadcast, they were working with Focus Group Investigating Witch Cults in the Radio Age, a hauntological psychedelic album with a tragic epitaph. Ha Ha Sound is Broadcast’s second studio album.
This traditionally “difficult” second album demonstrates the further development of Broadcast’s musical talent. Indeed, while lacking the finesse (and additional production from Focus Group) having heard the later Witch Cults first I was reluctant to spoil my impression of Broadcast by polluting it with earlier works. But in this instance I was rather surprised by how much I like it.
Think Portishead only 30 years ago.
