As well as explaining some of the problems they had to fight through to make the album, some of which demonstrated remarkable solidarity, it also set the scene for what is probably their most remarkable release to date in which the band, although maybe not intentionally, have broken new ground together

Shop Bending The Dark. A sonic emporium of traditional English folk, Asian percussion, dubstep, drum and bass and John Barry-esque 70's film soundtracks, 'Bending The Dark' is The Imagined Village's most thrilling, dynamic album to date. Pooling their vast experience and individual musical approaches, this collective - amongst them former members of Afro Celt Sound System, Transglobal Underground and Red Snapper plus folk luminaries Martin & Eliza Carthy and Jackie Oates - produce a jaw-dropping ride across genres and continents in a way few "conventional" groups can only dream of.
