Venue: OSLO Hackney 

4/5 stars 

Touring in support of their sweetly subdued fourth record Heartbreak Rules, Boston slowcore group Horse Jumper of Love showed no signs of being worn down by the road in their London debut. Balancing their newer prettier cuts with the fuzzy emotional heft of their debut album, HJOL brought a sweet authenticity to a set which felt like a characteristically mellow celebration of just how far their slacker anthems have taken them.
