The Virgance: Lost continent (2014)

The Virgance is Nathan Smith, formerly guitarist with nineties UK indie band Ripley, and consequently one third of noughties ambient electro noisemongers Loveless. 'Lost Continent' is Smith's debut solo LP. An epic voyage that is both euphoric and melancholic, taking in lush dreampop and shoegazing guitars, awash with synthesized female vocal textures and occasionally a light spray of electronics.
