The Necks’ ‘Bleed’ is briefer but there remains plenty of time to insert many small intriguing new twists into their incomparable brand of modern, minimalist music.

It probably goes without saying that if you like The Necks previous records, you’re going to like ‘Travel,’ too, guaranteed. It’s a familiar sound but the songs will still take you on an engaging journey where you’re not sure beforehand where they wind up.

Every Necks album is a plot twist in a long-running musical riddle, and ‘Three’ keeps the story very much alive for one of the most singular bands in contemporary music.

Sounding very much like themselves while incrementally reinventing themselves, The Necks’ constant tweaking of their formula keeps the music fresh and full of fascination. ‘Body’ nudges the band forward on their long, highly rewarding journey.
