However, you can access those hidden images in albums. It looks like they’ll be holding on to that “big in Europe” tag for a while longer. By adding photos or albums into Archive, they will not be shown on the homepage of Google Photos.

Because of this, Restriction may not be a strong enough album to see Archive break into the UK mainstream just yet. In Restriction, Archive have created an album that does a fine job of representing their eclectic ethos, but this eclecticism also leads the album to occasionally touch on the edge of incoherence. Working as a kind of call and response to one another, the tracks bring back the dark, sinister feel found at the beginning of the album, enhanced by soaring, Slowdive style guitars and impossibly dirty beats, the latter sounding like Nine Inch Nails, only with a little less bite.

The latter nearly entirely consists of Martin accompanied by a piano refrain that skirts dangerously close to the disposable pop music cultivated on a certain TV programme beginning with the letter ‘X’.īut any Simon Cowell-based fears are well and truly allayed by the time “Ruination” and “Crushed” come around. “Third Quarter Storm” and “Half Built Houses” see the band abandoning the big beats and racing rhythms in favour of moody piano and hushed atmospheric swirls. The slow build and impeccably timed cut-outs throughout the track coalesce to form a truly infectious piece of pop noir.Īs Restriction propels itself towards the halfway point, Archive suddenly apply the breaks in a big way. This is seamlessly contrasted by the smooth vocals of new recruit Holly Martin, who lends a hushed chanteuse aesthetic to the track before raising her vocals up a clear octave for the chorus, switching to pure adrenaline fueled Euro-soul. The track launches with a brooding concoction of synths and crunchy beats that pulse with the type of immediacy and sinister energy found in the likes of Meat Beat Manifesto and early The Knife.

It shouldn’t, but it does.Īrchive really hit their stride with “Kid Corner”. It’s an intense, schizophrenic listen and definitely not the most conventional choice for an opening gambit, but the propulsive beat strings the disparate elements together and, ultimately, the whole thing works. But before long, the song spins 180 degrees and dives headlong into a surf rock riff that soon morphs into a piano infused interlude before racing back to the surf again. Opener “Feel It” kicks things off with a frenetic, juddering borderline break beat coupled with fragmented guitar stabs that carry with them the feeling of off-kilter experimental jazz. I suppose this is what can be achieved when you work as a collective. Founding member and general linchpin of the whole operation Darius Keeler has worked fast in putting this album together as Restriction follows hotly behind the band’s previous album Axiom, an ambitious sonic/cinematic project that came to fruition just last year. If all the selected are archived - the action would be to unarchive.Having styled themselves as a collective, as opposed to a regular band, Archive are set to release their tenth studio album Restriction, and it sees the band on dependable form. If you select multiple photos, and at least one of them is not archived, then Shift+ A would archive.
