Zero 7 goes for a stroll through THE GARDEN for their third album, and they seem to find folk inspiration amongst the foliage. Jose Gonzalez appears with his guitar and gentle voice on the opener, "Futures," which has an interesting glitchiness towards the end, while "Left Behind" is much more straightforward in its acoustic simplicity (the electro beat follows right after on "Today," though). Sia pulls out the stops for the summery "Throw It All Away" or the swinging "You're My Flame." The horns and easygoing vibe of "Your Place" bring to mind a jazz combo playing their hearts out for a drunk audience, but only Sia could make a song with a title like "Waiting to Die" sound positively cheery. While it's not a 100% return to form, it's definitely plants the right seeds.
