★Sensitive Records (6)

2004 release ** "First edition of Nick Grey's debut album: an unexpected, elegant cross between avantrock and classical music, not far from the Tindersticks' poignant laments, David Bowie's "Outside" LP and Current 93's haunted ballads. "Regal Daylight", which features the participation of Nick's father, Romanian tenor Vasile Moldoveanu, is a hypnotic, lyrical and intimate experience."
