User Album Review
Distance Inbetween captures the propulsive spirit of the band live but brings it to a whole new level. It's The Coral's Krautrock moment and it works incredibly well for them. It's a strong departure from the more sedate haunted seaside sounds of their last album, Butterfly House. It’s the sound of a band revitalised after a five-year-hiatus, ready to conquer the world once again.
The first standout, 'Chasing the Tail of the Dream', has a tribal floor tom rhythm that would convert any Coral skeptic. It's got a universally appealing groove and you’d need to check your pulse if you’re not moved by it. Despite this appropriation of Krautrock in the rhythm section, the pop element can't ever escape The Coral. Skelly's melodic vocal hooks are a benefit that results the album keeping up with the band's tradition of being able to produce a handful of songs on each album that rank up there with their greatest hits.
The temptation to have put out this album soon after Butterfly House would have been strong. Especially to continue on the momentum that bands need to crack the world’s biggest stages. But the decision to wait five years, gain experiences outside of the band, and discover a sound that works best for them to move forward as an exciting live band has been a fruitful one. Their golden hour may be just on the horizon.
