2025 press.
Magic and Medicine catches The Coral right in their golden era - a warm, melodic trip through Merseybeat pop, dusty folk, and slightly haunted seaside psychedelia. It’s less chaotic than their debut but twice as confident, full of timeless songwriting and that distinct wiry Scouse charm. One minute you’re in a smoky pub, the next you’re on a carousel run by ghosts. Criminally underrated and still pure magic.
