House of Love frontman Guy Chadwicks debut is a gorgeous and seemingly effortless collection of breezy love songs.. Robin Guthries warm production serves these gentle songs wonderfully, and Guy's backing musicians complement him masterfully (Guthrie also played bass on eight songs). Lazy, Soft and Slow should warm your soul for many Sunday mornings to come. This album is magic, and the title says everything about the music: it's Lazy, Soft & Slow.
The critics at the time said this:
Mojo – ‘Velvet Underground inspired elegance – Enchanting - Unfathomable grace’
NME – ‘Its rich melodic luxury is enough to swim in - Dark but elegant allure - Unorthodox deep pile tunes’
THE DAILY TELEGRAPH – ‘Delectable devotional love tunes - a deliciously warm web of sound - A serene and dreamy album’
THE TIMES ‘ Gorgeous pop songs - A polished gem ‘
THE GUARDIAN - ‘A Little Beauty’
