THE PASTELS Illumination (UP) Prolific Glaswegian trio the Pastels trot out another avant lo-fi opus. Several spins are needed to adapt to the weird off-key bellow of Stephen McRobbie and the tentative slur of Katrina Mitchell. The delicate free-form guitar noodlings (featuring guests from Teenage Fanclub and Luna) evolve into melodies that meander. One fears the whole delightfully complex composition could collapse at any moment. B+
