THEE SPC SAY

Monkey Swallows The Universe are a fantastic acoustic five piece who write beguiling songs about love, jealousy, apathy, imaginary friends and pirates! Their bittersweet indiepop sounds have drawn comparisons with the music of Belle & Sebastian, Bright Eyes, Nick Drake, PJ Harvey and Mazzy Star . Thee SPC are extremely pround to release this album. "The Bright Carvings" is quite simple brilliant from beginning to end.
