Yet it's about as far from nostalgia as you could get

Fear of Music received favourable reviews from critics

Cranes - Wings Of Joy (1LP Coloured) Post-Punk of course: while the worldCranes' first full length album Wings of Joy was released back in 1991. The strange combination between gothic sounds on one side and the dream pop on marked a new decennia of music. It's one of those debut releases which throws you straight into the deep end. The varied tracks alternated between the heavier and lighter songs. It is gloomy, haunting and almost sinister in its atmosphere despite being made up almost entirely of piano and synth melodies.
