Perfect Distractions: Hercules & Love Affair The Feast of the Broken Heart
Today is a good day. The sun shone. Spring was definitely in my step. And so it seemed only appropriate that I greeted the news that Hercules & Love Affair were dropping their latest longplayer in May with the hankering for dodgy nightclubs, you know, the kind with sweat dripping from the arches, dark corners full of promise and a dancefloor filled with like-minded dancing … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Hercules & Love Affair The Feast of the Broken Heart
