Comments: From the onesheet: "Part Time Spies, the captivating second album by Bristol-based five-piece The Ramona Flowers... is a record surging with human warmth, filled with songs about the things that make life tick: death, rising rents, narcissism, broken relationships, selfies, the end of privacy, drunken nights out and hungover mornings in... [The Ramona Flowers] wanted to modernize the analogue warmth of the '80s sound. They listened to lots of Peter Gabriel, but also a lot of their current favorites, such as Everything Everything, M83, and Phoenix. They wanted their songs to evoke the feeling you get when you watch a great '80s film transposed to modern day."
