Cambridge’s acclaimed psych-folk quintet Fuzzy Lights return with their fifth album ‘Fen Creatures’. Following 2021’s critically lauded ‘Burials’, the band have created their most conceptually ambitious work to date – a meditation on environmental crisis that uses the folklore and history of East Anglia as a lens to examine humanity’s fractured relationship with the natural world.
Where ‘Burials' explored personal trauma and environmental collapse, ‘Fen Creatures’ expands this vision into something far more sweeping and interconnected. The album operates across multiple historical timelines, from Iron Age hill forts to medieval plague houses, from Byron’s Romantic-era environmental warnings to the immediate threat of rising sea levels, creating a temporal tapestry that weaves ancient stories with contemporary concerns.
The album calls attention to environmental change while exploring how folklore ties to the landscape
and our connection to our ancestors.
Musically, the group have pushed deeper into experimental drone territories while maintaining the crystalline folk sensibilities that have become their signature. The result is their most
atmospheric and immersive work to date, with vast sonic landscapes that mirror the fenland geography they’re documenting.
