    If this is the last we hear from Woman’s Hour then it underlines their formidable creativity; a moving, touching return, Ephyra is the sound of re-constructed glories.

    Woman’s Hour have created something truly special in these final throes.

    When they do finally depart after a handful of shows later this month, Woman's Hour find themselves in the fairly unique position of having a small but well formed catalogue of work that's near flawless. As a result, Ephyra is a fitting epitaph.

    Ephyra sees them merge their blissful tendencies with the chutzpah and restless creativity of '80s new wave, mixing in retro-futurist synths, mannered vocals, disco beats and erudite lyricism. [Apr 2019, p.118]

    Ephyra is an intelligent release, one that grows on its listeners far more than initial investigations would should suggest. Such things can be a double-edged sword however, and Ephyra is also a fractured record, the potential of which feels somewhat stymied by its own belligerence.
