Map 71 are Lisa Jayne (words, voice, art) and Andy Pyne (drums, sounds, production). Turn Back Metropolis is their fifth album. The record shifts from the hypnotic ascent of the ambitiously minimal title track to the jabbing industrial pulse and social realism of "Stitches". The strutting fantasy mischief of "Siren Tank" leads to the slinky dub vibe and darkly surreal intimacy of "Scissor Kiss Experiment". Then you wake up to another day living the unsettling rhythm of English seaside "Suburbanites". Turn Back Metropolis is as inspired by the dangers and safety in Map 71's habitat as it is by Lisa and Andy's musical influences. The fields are in sight of the city, but there's a curfew and the city waits for you to return.
