    Soon a year after their self-titled debut, Cardinal disbanded in 1995. It remained the sole collaboration of Richard Davies and Eric Matthews. They both pursued solo careers. Hymns is their new unlikely album after sixteen years and it is released today. Below you can download the first single:

    [♫] Cardinal - “Carbolic Smoke Ball”

    Not to be mixed with Ryan Adams backing band, the duo is best described as 60s-infused chamber orchestra pop or as they like to call it “following the Beatles and Bee Gees and before Belle & Sebastian”. It may also remind some folks of Sebadoh and Dandy Warholes at points. The song is about the first essay in law Davies ever read.

    For a full stream head over AOL Spinner before it’s late and if you find it soothing, buy the album from Fire Records.
